From: Alan Lambert Fort Worth, Texas John, I also agree with Michael.And as you have stated the problems that have popped up, we need to chill out and waite. Anybody that has done castings knows of the drawbacks that can and will happen. We all need to give Sergent a break and in the long run we will see something. Investment casting is not that easy when you are faced with what he has run into. The molds have to be changed to do that. He is working on that, and I for one will give him chance. You have helped alot also. Alan

I originally planned on equipping all my rolling stock and locomotives with sergent's couplers. Now since they aren't currently available, I asked some folks if they had some they weren't going to use and received a few in the mail. Now two or three pair, isn't going to make a railroad run very well. So....I have turned to KD's 802 in the interim. Now once the Sergent couplers are available on a regular basis, I will re-equip my rolling stock and locomotives with the sergent couplers and put the KD's up for sale. This to me is the best compromise. If for some reason things fall completely apart at sergent and they don't come out at all, I'm still going to be able to run my railroad. > >Michael Ostertag
