Ah. Wasn't thinking that the constants in ActiveSupport::Dependencies::Reference don't include everything. :)
Needed to store the class for later retrieval and then: Object.send(:remove_const, :Journey) I think may be fixed in current version of Constance gem. Try: Constance::Resolver.will_replace(Journey) Unfortunately the example search regexps on the caller stack may be inadequate because lib is in just about every gem so would need to prefix with your app name.
