Reply to "Is there a source for Alco PA/FA scale pilots?"

Here is one of my MTH PAs without anticlimber.  Simple brass construction.  Then after that is my new Erie-Built with my second attempt at art deco and anti climber.  I could make a metal master and lend it to somebody for a lost wax mold, but I would want a casting in return.  I have only two MTH units that need anti climbers, and with my new-found skill I can probably do without going into the casting business myself.  These are all metal - the PA is nickel silver with brass pilot and aluminum fuel tank.  The Erie-Built is part lost wax, part sand cast, and part ancient roof and trucks from the distant past when foundries were in every neighborhood.
