This is my HO Scale Overland Brass Union Pacific Rotary Snow Plow #900082. I love this model because it, like the prototype, is so unique!
This Model has been offered in HO Scale, but only in brass, by Overland and Orion Models. I believe Overland only offered thiers unfinished in Brass, while Orion offered thier nickle-plated to simulate the silver/aluminum paint of the Union Pacific Prototype.
I am particularly proud of my rotary snow plow because I purchased off of E-bay from a Union Pacific Engineer from Idaho. He purchased it a number of years before and had it custom painted. The talent of the painter is excellent and it is one of the models I am proudest to show off!
