Thanks, guys; I probably could have answered my own question if I had thought to check the 2-8-2 before asking.I got it out this morning and realized it was Ajin, and the 4-6-2 MSM; the Ajin is slightly better in most respects, while the MSM tends to have more detail. I have a RDG 2-8-0 from MSM as well but don't believe I had occasion to take the smokebox front off yet.

Models, as is the D&RGW K-36 2-8-2 (Sn3). The Mich-Cal Shay is Ajin.

My fading memory tells me those were the only two S scale steam engines built for Overland by M. S. Models and the flue castings are unique to that builder. All the other OMI S scale steam models came from Ajin Precision.
