Hi,

I was wondering if anyone can provide information on the models carried by AJ Reeves & Co. or Reeves 2000 as they are known today and Bruenell Steam Model Engineering. I see what appears to be identical models on both sites. Identical models would be the marine triple expansion, Allchin 1.5 in. traction engine, M.E. Beam engine, etc.
Does anyone know if one company is making these castings and the other company selling the castings? Is there a third company involved in marketing these castings? My preference is to deal with the company that owns the patterns and makes the castings if possible.

Thanks.

They both have patterns and likely use different foundries from whats posted about one supplier I would suggest you stick with Reeves may be a little more expensive but better all round.
