Some questions:

Although many of those scale SSL&S kits are out there presumably, hardly any 
ever show up on E-Bay or on our list.  I wonder if those kits are like the 
Sunshine kits in HO: They accurately portray the prototype freight car they are 
supposed to, and they sell.  But I really doubt that all the purchasers have 
assembled them.  Perhaps it's that way with those kits for brass steam 
locomotives.  I once inquired of Claude Wade about assembling such a kit.  He 
graciously responded with a letter instructing me that,yes, it did take time to 
assemble a kit. He also included the directions for the Berkshire.  I kept them 
for many years and recall that they were highly detailed and many pages long.  

All that leads me to suspect that many who have purchased the kits may still 
have them on a shelf somewhere.  Claude Wade also had a 2-8-0 and some 
switchers if I remember correctly.
