I am building a 7mm Q1 I am trying to find a set of tranfers for the
cab side smoke box. Can anybody recommend a manufacturer?

What era are you talking about?

I always use HMRS Pressfix transfers for my 7mm scale models. These can be
obtained from Tower Models in Blackpool.

Late 50's early go's the last days of the Q1.

This is my first dabble into steam era and 7mm hence a lack of
knowledge if the cab side numbers are a standard font for all locos of
the era.

Any help is appreciated.

No there were size and font differences, but there's plenty of photo
eveidence as to the liveries carried by the Q1s.

The HMRS sheet for BR loco numbers and crests should be ok for the Q1s.
