Brass verses Plastic

I have both plastic and brass engines of the same type. For instance, one of my favorite engines is the NKP Berkshire. I have them by AHM, (RIV ), I have some by PFM, by PSC and Division Point. If you compare the engines, you will see a major difference even in the brass models. The new Division Point is absolutely one of the best models money can buy, but you could have many plastic AHM type engines for one of the new Berkshires. I have to admit that the AHM models from a distance do not look bad at all so they are a good value also., but the running qualities are poor. <br /> <br />Not all brass runs good, but Challenger, Key, Overland and Division Point are really making an effort to sell good running brass if you want to spend some money. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
