Reply to "K-Line "by Lionel" 6-2284 S-2 diesel switcher? Info needed please."

Thanks for the excellent info Brian.

I did search for info here in the search section, and it alerted me to certain of the problems, but it was my hope that K-Line "by Lionel" meant that Lionel had stepped in at the later stages a fixed the problems.  Guess not.   So I'll pass on this item.   Too bad, since the shell design and details of the UP shell look really great.

Brian, very interesting that you kit-bashed a Beep using a Lionel switcher frame.  I have a spare BEEP shell, and I was just getting ready to take a Lionel NW-2, single motor model, and cut the frame in half.  I think the BEEP shell will fit right down over top of the half with the motor and powered trucks.   As you probably found, I'll have to build some very narrow side panels to cover up a small gap on each side of the bottom of the shell, but that looks like something that will be simple to do.

I saw one last week, on an old Youtube, called Candy Train Beep.   

Thanks again,

Mannyrock
