Can anyone in this group point me in a direction to find these particular bearing caps?…..these are roller rod bearing caps found on 2 rail scale ( and maybe some 3rd Rail models ) ……..I’ve found these on a couple different importer’s models, and was wondering if anybody has a source to buy these in quantity,…..I post on this forum so a discussion can be had??…..if I’m wrong, go ahead and delete it,….if I can’t find them, I might try my hand at casting them in Pewter in a silicone mold…..us over in 3 rail land can use these little beauties to dress up our roller rod bearing equipped locomotives,….I’ve already asked Scott over at 3rd Rail, and waiting for a response, but I figured maybe some of y’all might have some ideas,…..thanks for looking!!….BTW, I’ve tried the usual haunts, PSC, etc….nothing pops up, unless I’m missing something….F702DE19-97E8-492B-A253-2244E05435F9AD07AB14-577E-4D2F-B0A4-CC48BA0629E3

Dennis Mashburn made me a bunch almost exactly like that in nickel silver.  I think Stevenson Preservation has the mold.

I used them on the Dreyfus Hudson (my rods and drivers) and the Lobaugh Greenbrier.

Thanks Bob, I’ve sent Stevenson’s an inquiry,….we’ll see what that turns up,….if no luck, looks like I’ll be playing with molten metals,…..😁
