  • Balboa Scale Models from San Diego, CA (1964-1974) was one of the earlier importers of brass locomotives. They focused primarily on SP and UP steam, with some Colorado narrow gauge mixed in, plus slews of passenger cars that were fairly accurate for one railroad but then apocryphally painted in many railroad's schemes. Their Master series was, like PFM's Crown series, intended to offer premium detail at a premium price.
