Fred Icken PRR K4 pulling Scale Craft cars

Hello all

Last engine purchase for 2021 .....Fred Icken PRR K4 ...circa 1933-6 ...sheet , channel and cast brass ...basic engine drive without the classic double gear reduction,....but runs like a Swiss watch .

Started life outside 3rd rail....last owner added inside 3rd rail pickups and a unit....current owner ...me ...converts back to outside 3rd rail,...and back to mechanical reverse .

Early Scale Craft cars ..1934-6 ...bristol board sides , wood roofs and floors ....trucks unique ..look like 6 wheel ..but center wheels dummy ..4 wheels sets with ball bearings ...oh they roll so nice ..originally on the "Little Southern RR " ...William Haverly's layout ..( first NMRA president ) .

Please see link for action video
