Not in all cases, Dave... as my SAL B-7 Box Car project stand to prove. After many Y EARS of trtying to get S scalers on board, Jim finally had to threaten to cancel the project to get everyone to step up... at which point the reservations DOUBLED, and the B-7 now stands to be his second best seller.
And besides... good, and better things are worth waiting (and working) for... and it isn't bothering me one bit (except to increase my desire for it). But what amazes me the most is that people who are not even concerned about or interested in the Sergent couplers are the ones raising all the stink about it... go figure. I appreciate the concern, but not if it is born out of being sick of hearing about it../. 'cause all you gotta do is just ignore the postings about it.

I proposed years ago that he license the design to Kadee or some other competent builder and just get them done. Who knows, maybe the guys who could get it done were not interested but the longer it takes to get the couplers on the market the less interest customers will have in them.Many model railroads and model railroaders have come and gone since the initial Sergent design was created....DaveBranum ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
