    Years ago I picked some up and they were perfect for my Paducah rebuilds in N. Problem is, that company is no longer around. Does anyone know of someone making these in N now or am I going to have to start casting parts?

    Any help is appreciated!

    What company made the part? Have a reference photo of what this looks like?

    Had one around here. For some reason, I cannot find it this morning. I know that maker name for those ox yoke filter boxes, but can't recall it right now. If I could find that package.... :(

    Found the packaging, I bought them probably 10 years ago. Mocalova Model Works. Looks like he is no longer in Business. I have a set of his Farr "Yoke" style air filters which is perfect for an ICG GP10 I'm building for a customer. Looks like I'll have to scratch build these.

    Jim,
    If you decide to resin cast some, I would be interested in purchasing a few off of you.

    Mocalova closed down a few years ago. Bummer, as he had some nice details and narrow gauge kits.
