UP FOR AUCTION IS A HARD TO FIND OMI BRASS GATX 10,000 GALLON INSULATED SINGLE DOME  TANK CAR THAT, ACCORDING TO THE BOX LABEL, WAS BUILT IN 1930. THE MODEL IS PRO CUSTOM PAINTED AND DECAL LETTERED. I WOULD RATE THE PAINT AS A 9 OUT OF 10.   THE PROTOTYPE OF THIS CAR HAD A LONG SERVICE LIFE LASTING FROM THE 1930's TO THE EARLY 1960's. THE PROTOTYPE TANK CAR WAS USED BY MANY PRIVATE SHIPPERS. This is a well built, highly detailed model. The model was built by AJIN PRECISION IN KOREA for OMI. The model comes with its original factory foam and box, showing minimal shelf wear. The model has complete AB brake rigging, vertical shaft hand brake, and brass coupler lift bars. The wheel faces, reverse sides, and axles have been painted grimy black. I have added Kadee #5 couplers.The model does not have its original small parts bag, the content having been used to detail the model. I think it is safe to say that this model will never be done in brass again. I am the original owner of the model. I have stored the model in a smoke-free climate controlled environment since purchased. The first time this model was taken out of the box by me was to take the listing pictures for this auction. This is a hard to find model of a unique prototype that is RTR or deserving of a place in your display cabinet.There is nothing broken, bent or missing on this car.

Please bookmark my seller's page as I intend to list many unique, unusual and hard-to-find model rail road items over the next several months. Most of the items that will be listed were originally purchased by me over the last 55 years of model rail road collecting. Most of the upcoming items are new in their original factory packaging, having been stored unopened over these last fifty plus years. I am not a dealer, just a collector like you, who has decided to downsize a collection that has grown too large for my current living space. This is your opportunity to obtain a like new collectible model at a reasonable price. I will be listing brass locomotives, diesel and steam, as well as brass rolling stock, structures, and buildings. In addition to brass models,  I will be listing many RTR plastic diesels (Proto 2000, Atlas, Intermountain, Athearn Genesis) as well as plastic kit and RTR rolling stock, structures and buildings and many professionally built and painted resin freight cars. I have hundreds of out-of-production decals and brass and plastic detail parts to list as well as model cars, trucks and buses. You can bid with confidence as I have been a member of eBay since 1999 and I have sold and/or purchased over 750 brass models during that time. Kindly note that I have a 100% seller's rating.

If you have a problem with your purchase please contact me directly and we can mutually attempt to resolve your issue. Given the volume of material that must be sold, I want you to be a satisfied repeat buyer. I will make all reasonable efforts to make your purchase a hassle free experience.

PLEASE NOTE THAT I WILL NOT SHIP TO ANY FOREIGN COUNTRY. ALL BUYER'S MUST HAVE A U.S. MAILING ADDRESS. ALL SALES OVER $50.00 WILL REQUIRE INSURANCE AND PRIORITY MAIL.
