215?  They sure seemed heavier than that in the junkyards...  Then 
again, it's be a long time since I last touched a TH400 so my memory is 
foggy.  It's also been a long time since I've even SEEN a TH400 in a 'yard.

While I can't lift the TH440-T4 by myself with any kind of ease, I'd 
wager it's not heavier than the TH400.

Of course, we can all see how poor my ability to guess weight is, so 
perhaps weighing one is the right answer :)
