Does BLMA have a web presence or other contact info so we
can see what they
have on offer [for our steam era freight cars]?

There are several vendors who offer HO grab irons in steel,
brass
or copper alloy. I think they are all .010 to .012. The
BLMA grabs will
go onto the "museum quality" models but for the
rest, it's not worth
the cost.

BLMA makes a nice grab iron placement jig too. Very
important if
you're using scale grabs!

I just got some Tichy Train grab irons and they seem

nice I just haven't
used

them yet. They are much better price then the BLMA

versions.
