    Well that is news to me. Well Dee left and now Leon. All the folks I knew are gone now.

    Maybe this is why these issues are starting to pop up.......

    Any word on where Leon went to?

    Really???!!!!!
    I haven't called out there in a couple of years. I'd just send the stuff out & assumed he took care of it. You know what they say when you assume!

    For those of you having TT tire issues. I had one of my GS-4s constantly throwing its tire. I tried the black paint to secure it, but that didn't work. My last repair appears to be work, I used the TT from a Bmann 4-8-2 light mountain. It is a pain to stretch it on the driver, but it isn't going anywhere.

    My 4449 made the journey back from KATO today, which made me very happy :dance: All it needed (as far as I know) was clean and lubrication - now it runs very smooth in both directions.
