Model Railroading > Number of Overland Brass Pieces Produced for a Particular Item?Date: 09/29/22 17:58 Number of Overland Brass Pieces Produced for a Particular Item? Author: wabash2800 Is there a ready source to find that out? I know that Overland no longer produces brass, but I contacted the owner and it sounded like it would be chore for him to look it up. And I never heard back from him.

You will have to set up a profile (free/easy) to gain access to that feature.

If anyone is interested I would part with it make me an offer. I'm 89 and t does me no good now.
