Sale of Precision Scale Co

This?

"NOTICE

Precision (PSC) is still in the parts/castings and importing business (for now).

American Scale Models/Bill Davis has purchased only the repair parts supplied to PSC by the Korean builders for each model project (in HO and O),plus the associated decals for same. ...similar to the purchase of same from Overland years ago.

PSC has announced the C&O H7 is their last O scale project. Overland is out of the brass business. It is likely that very few models,if any will be seen in the future from the other top builders too. 

Significant price increases (Koreans want flat screens and SUVs too) plus waning demand (attrition) and competition from plastic can be cited as reasons for the abovementioned;although plastic is becoming expensive too. Perhaps we are witness to the end of the brass era?

While the hobby is by no means "dead"; and actually rather vibrant of late,the downward curve of new imports intersects neatly with the slowly declining amount of new entrants in to O scale modeling,IMHO.

 Keep Em Rolling Till The Wheels Fall Off!

Sincerely, Bill Davis"
