This gearbox is strictly a Legacy design and appeared in 2011 in these first run k4s.

From there ,it found its way into the light and heavy mike's, northerns, mountains, consolidations,pacifics articulateds etc.

Its not used in the ESE hudsons or the j3a . It is not in the small 0-6-0s either.

It’s also in the small  Legacy Berks, and the legacy Mohawks if I’m not mistaken Rick, …..I know the legacy small Berks use this design, and I have a brand new chassis I’m swapping into a KLine B&M Berk, that will get the mod as a preemptive strike…..it’s just cheap insurance if it’s new,….there’s no telling with out time, like you’ve mentioned, if it’s a chronic failure, or just certain ones are proved to fail,….
