The ACL used a couple different typefaces, do you have an image of the one you're trying to find?

The type face is Eurostile Extended or Eurostile Extended 2. I was unable to find free versions which means this type family is still under copyright.

The image you posted of the font - is where you get the font at railfonts, otherwise you have to make it yourself.

I've seen this before but I've been a bit leery of sites other than Da Font www.dafont.com due to the possibility of picking up malware. Like Trainz, fonts seem to be malware targets for some sites.

I've never had any issues with Fontyukle. Been using it for like 15 years now.

That is good to know. Thank you very much, Dave. I'll pass this on to my brother. One of his customers ended up with an infected computer due to malware being embedded into a font she downloaded. Since then, he's been very paranoid about sites and I am naturally paranoid too because I'm the one that needs to clean up the mess.

@davesnow > Yeah, a Reddit post with no empirical data is not the best place to find info on a particular website, security-wise.

These are better: No malicious reports.
