Hi V <br />Thanks for the reply. <br /> <br />I missed your Atlas post. Back than Steam was not an active subject and your post just didn't jump <br />out and bite me in the butt. <br />Sure, a refund for a modeler is a pipe dream but a resolution should not be. The 2-8-2 and the 4-6-2 were two years apart in the manufacturing both with the same problem. There's a ton of those <br />still on the shelf and maybe 900 hours from now today's new buyer will have a fix. Perhaps the <br />the market has to adjust to compensate current buyers for the added risk.. <br /> <br />I'm not a crusader, just a rehabilitated steam guy trying to climb the grade. <br />Burned too times by steam before. If only they could run like a diesel
