Check out the latest addition: Collectable HO BRASS Steam locomotives
that have been bought, refurbished and in some cases re-engineered for
HOSteamCentral Railroad. Some may be offered for sale! Here is the
current Gallery of Steam I will be
updating the "Gallery" with more pictures and descripions weekly.
This is a snapshot of my current BRASS collection.

Over the previous two years I have purchased over sixty brass steam engines from dealers, e-bay and at auctions.
In Collectable Brass, age has little to do with quality. Quality is the dedication, attention to
detail, painstaking hours of setup time, and inovation in designing a priceless piece of history.
Discovering and purchasing Brass models has created an entirely different portal for the hobby. Learning how to resistance solder
, making jigs and fixtures as well as researching various locations for missing brass parts has made
this hobby take on a deeper meaning and appreciation for all of the people who have spent countless hours
hand making beautiful pieces of art. A brass locomotive is truly a work of art. It is timeless, yet
enables one to see the intimate detail and re-creation of a period in our history. |
