It will never happen in Britain because of six words, the same six words that virtually wiped out the British motor cycle industry and brought the British car industry to its knees. The six words are "we've always done it that way" --------------------------The same words would generally apply to the Porn Industry, and it hasn't stopped them !!

For us in the UK to change requires several things.
We would have to persuade the insurance copmanies that it is OK, and they then allow the clubs boiler inspectors to approve suh construction. (I have my doubts on this last point, which may not be a good idea.)
We would have to have a reasonable number of model engineers who wanted to use SS and wee prepared to pay for it.
We woul dneed suppliers who were prepared to stock it.
Unless ALL those are in place, it wont happen.
As an illustration, some months ago I was considering a welded copper boiler for a loco I have to rebuild for someone. (Buying a boiler would save me a lot of time and effort.) The main supplier couldnt / wouldnt give me a quote for it, even though it is a standard model that has been built by the thousand.
To get SS accepted, suppliers would HAVE to give their support to the idea.
Overall, dont hold you breath waiting for it to happen.
