Bowser USRA Lt Mikado, Deluxe Kit build

Galen,

It is a form letter saying that I did not follow their policy about missing parts and that they provided the part "This time" at no charge.
When I opened the box, brand new, their was nothing inside about missing parts policies, warranties, parts lists, etc.

As an aside, I have been obsesively planning the track for this thing to run on, and my wrists are getting worse, so I have not done anything with it since the last set of pics. I will do something tomorrow, as long as my wrists will allow it.

I've received one of those letters before...or rather more than once.

I felt bad when I received one from Precision Scale. I'd ordered one of their excellent styrene handcar kits from Walthers. I made a couple small mistakes on it, and needed new parts. I emailed them, and they sent me the parts with a note that their records didn't have any reference to me ordering a brass handcar kit from them. Then I got my kit out and realized two things: 1) it was plastic, and 2) I ordered from Walthers.

I'd love order a few more of those kits for my future layout...not only do they look really sweet just sitting there, but they look even better when pushing the bar down causes it to be propelled down the tracks.
