A couple of suggesstions would be Western Depot or Just Trains, the last time I surfed their sites I believe they were showing as in stock.

Alex,

The K-Line Scale B&O Mikado with TMCC and RS only came in black.

The K-Line Scale B&O Pacific with TMCC, RS, and Cruise came in both blue and black. I think this is what you are looking for.Smile [:)]

The black Pacific originally came with a freight set...B&O coal hppers and a caboose.

The blue Pacific originally came with a 5-car set of B&O Madison cars with people.

I own the blue Pacific with the passenger cars. It is a great loco, a great set, and a good looker.

You can still find them new or on ebay from time to time. Search Google, and look in the train mag ads. Locos can mostly be found as seperate sales, and sometimes as sets.

Keep in mind K-Line is no longer in business, so you have no waranty if something breaks or goes wrong.

Here is a few pics of my Pacific passenger set:

 

 

 

 PS. I also own the K-Line Scale B&O Mikado, nice but it needed cruise for good low speed operation. I added the Train America EOB. Now it creeps. Another great K-Line steamer! What can I say, I am a B&O fan!Cool [8D]
