K-Line Semi and Scale Heaveyweights
Posted by Interurbanbasher on Sunday, October 28, 2012 9:04 AM

Where have the gone too? I have seen some shortened versions on a single truck. They used these heaveyweights as the basis for MU's and interurbans. Then Lionel had a recent Pennsylvinia commuter .

 

 Whats the future hold?

The K-Line interurban passenger cars seem to have dis-appeared. K-Line was sued by Lionel for copy-wright infringements, then K-Line was basically broken up after that. Parts of K-Line can be found being sold by two or three companies; RMT has the K-Line Super Snap track and some freight hoppers, Bachmann/Williams has the Super Streets track and now calls it E-Z Streets(supposed to be compatible/useable with Super Streets), Lionel sells the left-over K-Line products that they have on hand. Who has the interurbans by K-Line? Only time will tell if they are offered by Lionel.
