Hello all,
Was wondering if Baltimore and Ohio capital dome emblems were ever made in brass for any scale? Can't seem to find any on the internet.
Thanks.

I have also been looking for them. I had an uncle who worked for the B&O and he told me all the items left after scrapping were given to the execs of the railroad, none seem to make it to the rank and file he told me. if you get lucky I appreciate it if you let me know. I like to make a cast copy of one.

Yes, they have been made in O scale by Wilbur Epperley in WVa t/a CandO plates as I recall. Wilbur sold the line to Keith Wiseman of Wiseman Model Services in Kentucky. Keith subsequently sold the line to Allegheny Scale Models in NJ.
They were made as two pieces - the round backing plate and the Capitol emblem.
Check the Allegheny Scale Models website for contact info.
Thanks for the lead. Very much appreciated.
