Inside a Brass Factory

Check out this link to a photo montage of how brass locomotives are made. I found it very informative.

There are a 100 pictures. Scroll through for some interesting shots.

Thanks for that! Fascinating look at what’s involved in bringing fabulous models to life. My wife also finds the pics intriguing as she traveled briefly in Korea while trying to wait out a Japanese visa issue[;)]

I highly recommend viewing these pics. the upcoming DVD should be equally interesting.

Thank you for posting this! it’s a great way for us fans of brass models to see what really goes into creating these gems. I find it interesting too that many of the tools they show are not very sophisticated, such as the photo early in the set of the pilot model makers workbench, and you see soldering iron, rotary tool and numerous hand tools.
