Hello and welcome Jack,
If you're looking for body parts. You might take a close look at some of the 027 (Train 99) Kline trains. I believe the Alco FA was made using the KMT/Kusan molds. It might offer a way to repower if the need be. The 027 caboose was too. Kline also used orginal Marx tooing as well. As mention earlier Ebay is a very good souce.
I remember Kusan's space train. My next door neighbor had one. It was fun to watch.

eBay had 58 items listed for "KMT", most of them trains. Perhaps you can get a lead on the KMT parts you need from someone selling there:

Hi:

I'm new to forum and to hobby. Restoring (amatuer) some MARX and Lionel stuff.

recently got a couple of KMT trains......an excellent Burlington and the space exploration train. The space train diesel has a couple of broken and missing parts (intermediate rear motor housing/transfer gear [plastc, broken], and the front contact spreader post and spring [missing]). For the life of me, I can find no one even talking about these, let alone used parts, info, etc. Any help here???????????? Links????? KMT forum???

Thanks.
