Thank you, Eric, Threeneurons.
What I am taking away from this is:
* Keep my thyratrons for the reason I bought them: spares for my Geiger
counters. (I have two: because the original wasn't working, the Ebay
vendor sent not the parts (missing GM tubes) I asked for, but a whole unit.)
*
The Russians regularely used thyratrons, both cold cathode types and those
with a heater to drive Dekatrons. What types do you have?

Has anyone done/seen Dekatrons used in conjunction with thyratrons?

They are useful, but consider the MTBF is 5000 h !

energised time that counts.

Depends if you just want to use one to step a dekatron, or need it between
dekatrons, so the second one steps, per every revolution of the prior one.
The interstage one could be a problem. That one would need to respond to
the output of one dekatron, and then boost it to step the second. The
