Tom,
Bastion Models were started by famous Andrew Rose in 1981. It had two main ranges: British and European troops from 1879-to 1914 including extensive range of Boxer Rebellion sets. Bastion was sold to P&B Castings in 1989, which is our of production now, I believe.
I used to have several BR sets but was not very impressed with them and sold them a couple years ago.
