You're absolutely right that Aster have earned our highest respect for their contributions to the hobby. (Though, as a 1:20 fan, I might grouse a little about them only producing one loco in my scale over the course of 30 years.) My point, alas clumsily made, was just that even an Aster requires some fiddling when new. I guess that's just the nature of what is one of the few hand-built products you can still buy. We should celebrate that fact, rather than complaining that they still have some human qualities left in them! -vance- If you were here, we'd be running trains by now.
