I am going to accept the challenge of caring for an orphaned project I started almost 20 years ago.
I started this HO scale scratch built (kitbashed?) K4 using a Pennline frame and drivers. Everything else (excluding wheels, gears and motor) was made using basic hand tools.
I worked on it off and on for almost 10 years. At that point, it found a permanent spot at the end of the to do list. Mainly because of its crudeness compared to today's standards.
I would like to finish the locomotive and paint it as I intended to when I started the project. (without using exotic tools and machinery) Then reunite her with her sister (an E6 Atlantic I built from scratch just before I started the K4 build).
