I think that's why Sam is asking us. He knows what the dimensions are
and he knows that if we find the dimensions ourselves we'll learn that
the #802 is pretty darn close (+10%). When you can't tell people
things and have them believe you, you have to resort to tactics of
getting them to convince themselves.
In my response to Sam this morning, I expressed a desire to see the
Kadee #58 blown up to S scale proportions: the draft gear design, the
knuckle details, and the fact that it's made out of metal.
In some ways I'm sorry to have ruffled everyone's feathers. We might
get a coupler out of it, but it's clear (yet again) that you can't
make everyone happy. I feel sorry for Sam Clarke today in that regard.
In the meantime, I'm going to order some couplers and play with my
boxcars... :-)
