Current status of PRR K4 1361?
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, September 8, 2005 9:01 PM
Anybody know the current status of PRR K4 1361, I know its still in parts and pieces, but is anything getting done, or a time frame for a return to steam? I am also looking for a nice 3/4 view color photo to use as a back drop on my computer. I am getting a O gauge K line K4 in that number to go with my other HO scale K4's that I have. Thanks Mike T

Completion? Probably another two years. You're right about it still being in pieces all over the place at Steamtown. Work is slow going due to the small crew of people working on it.

I wish I lived closer to scranton, its a haul from Erie to there, I have spent some quality time with NKP 587 when I was living in Indiana state. I would love to put in some volunteer time on the K4. Thanks Mike
