Lee asked about the various Overland C&S model runs in On3.

As a distraction from the bizarre 2020 election that we're all living through, I did some research on the BrassTrains.com "Brass Guide" page and came up with this info:

On3 C&S 2-6-0s:

Overland produced the same Cooke 2-6-0 models in 1986, that they later produced as a second run in Sn3, in 1990.

Product number 0117, C&S 5 (early version c.1912), 1986, 40 models produced.
Product number 0018, C&S 6 (1930's version), 1986, 25 models produced.
Product number 0119, C&S 8 (1930s version) 1986, 25 models produced.
Product number 0120, C&S 9 (1930s version, butterfly plow) 1986, 50 units produced.

Here is an Overland ad from the January/February, 1987, NG&SL Gazette, for the Cooke 2-6-0 run in On3:




Overland produced the rebuilt Brooks 2-6-0s a couple of years later:

Product number 0170, C&S 21 (early version c. 1915, Como spark arrestor) 1990, 40 models produced.
Product number 0171, C&S 22 (1920s version, intermediate tender, Ridgeway spark arrestor) 1990, 60 models produced.

The Overland C&S 2-8-0 offerings differed from those in Sn3. While Overland produced Sn3 versions of C&S 60 (Rhode Island, B4-C), C&S 65/69/70 (Baldwin, B4-D), and C&S 74 (Brooks, B4-F), these were never offered in On3 by Overland.

But Overland did produce all three of the Baldwin B4-Es:

Product number 0112. C&S 71 (late 1930s version) 1986, 50 models produced.
Product number 0113, C&S 72 (late 1930s version) 1986, unknown number of models produced.
Product number 0114, C&S 73 (late 1930s version) 1986, 25 models produced.

As for C&S rolling stock produced by Overland in On3:

Product number 0079, C&S caboose 1000, 1987, 10 models produced.
Product number 0080, C&S caboose 1002, 1987, 25 models produced.
Product number 0081, C&S caboose 1003, 1987, 10 models produced.
Product number 0082, C&S caboose 1005, 1987, 10 models produced.
Product number 0083, C&S caboose 1006, 1987, 20 models produced.
Product number 0085, C&S caboose 1008, 1987, 10 models produced.
Product number 0086, C&S caboose 1009, 1987, 25 models produced.

Product number 0087, DSP&P/DL&G/C&S waycar (pre-1908 rebuild version, no cupola), 1987, 30 models produced.

Overland only produced two C&S passenger cars in On3, both were coaches (RPO 13, produced in Sn3, was never produced in On3).

Product number 0729,  C&S coach "70-73", 1988, 75 models produced.
Product number 0730,  C&S coach "74-76", 1988, number of models not recorded.

Note that Coach "70-73" likely only represents C&S 70 as a prototype. Coaches 71-76 all seem identical to Overland C&S coach "74-76."

This is all of the Overland C&S models produced in On3 of which I am aware.
Overland produced a large run of DSP&P Mason bogies in On3, but that is another story . . .
