Well, my wish list came through and I was able acquire a Accucraft Butane fired K-28.
SO now what do I do!!!
I will give you a little history on it. The seller bought the loco a few years ago. He test fired it at the dealer and then had it cleaned up and put back in the box. That is where it sat until he decided to sell it. Thatās where I come in.
Iām thinking I will probably have to replace some seals after it has sat so long, but not sure yet. Its not in my possession. Which seals would I expect to be deteriorated, lubricator?
I will definitely be adding R/C to it as I have a 4% grade in one spot on my layout. Some advice on that would be nice. Iām fully aware of the R/C stuff in the sparky department. I currently own CVP T5000 and a NCE G-wire throttles, but I dont plan on using them for this loco.
Iād like to add a chuffer as I like the sound better. Is Summerlands the only option out there, or they just the best?
Iām pretty good with tools so I can add this stuff myself. But Iām not sure all that I will need.
