Hi Ron, I think that it has happened a few times when people have bought 
these kits and due to problems they cannot sort out give everything up which is 
a 
shame.  I know someone building the A3 and he once thought of selling it as 
scrap so I enquired but he decided to keep it.  I know he has not done a lot to 
it for about 12 months now.  There is usually someone who can help these 
people but unfortunatly it can take a lot of time.  Mine has taken me a lot of 
time 
in the last 12 months to get to a running loco (not very good yet but getting 
there) but it will be next year now before it can be finished.  Overall then 
this is about 4 years for mine so, so much for the advertised 200 hours.  I 
have about a 12 page document of problems regarding my A4.  Nice to know 
another 
loco runs well though, she should be proud of herself.  I have seen a 9F but 
it was heavily modified before it would run.
