Estate collection including brass and non-brass pieces, plus tons of accesories. Collected mainly between the years 1985-1990. The family has decided to sell the collection, and put the money towards the youngest daughter's college 1st year of college incidentals money.
I have gone through the collection and found 16 Brass pieces. Are all in super-excellent condition (IMO), with their original soft foam and even styrofoam packing in place.
Makers include Ajin Precision, Oh Sung, M.S. Models and Samhongsa, Pacific Fast Mail, and Precision Scale. The main importer is Overland Models Inc. A few are stamped "Custom Painted by Jim Kurtz Dallas Texas" inside the box lids. Several are unpainted brass.
They don't appear to have been run to me. I invited a local RR modeling club to inspect the pieces. We ran 3 or 4 (with styrofoam packing in place!), all ran beautifully. The old-timers in the club said they just need a little lubrication.
Most of the engines are in black Southern RR livery, all the engines are diesels. I put pictures (minus the individual box labels) on the web; intermixed with the (120 or so) non-brass pieces. You can see the pics & prices at:

I have also developed a complete Excel spreadsheet with prices in the left hand column that I can email you. Wherever possible, I have used real selling prices of identical or similar pieces. On the far right are the picture numbers to match with the photos.
Please also see the listing for the non-Brass collection, and the listing for the accessories collection. Pieces ARE available individually, but I am willing to offer a discount to a buyer who buys this whole brass collection. I will offer a significant discount to a buyer who buys the brass, non-brass, and accessories all together. Shipping & Handling cost to be determined.
Please contact me if any questions,
