I like the way they operate and how they look, but unfortunately

If someone can find a way to uncouple them remotely or in any other
fashion, then they will become workable in operating sessions.

I have designed a beta version of a Sergent remote uncoupler. Perhaps
with some refinements this can be worked into a solution to the
problem.

The file area has my idea under: http://tinyurl.com/dqt8z

Or if that does not work the file name is Sergent Uncoupler.doc

Any comments?
