My dad had one for years given to him in 1952 by my grandfather.What are the chances of finding it again if my cousin sold it to a pawn shop?It was a replica of a pennsylvania K-4 pacific,but the wheel arrangement was backwards.I now work in N-scale and my dad bought a new Santa Fe berkshire to replace it in 2004.The pawn shop was in Newnan,GA in 1987.I was the only one of three children to run it regularly and wish I had said yes when my Dad offered it to me.I could easily get another one,but I'm sentimental about that one.It's the only toy my Dad ever kept.
Gosh, I hate to say it, but I think you have two chances - slim and none. Any chance you could track the pawn shop owners for any records they might have kept?
Good luck,
