Thanks Frank

Sorry for the confusion but I only need the owners manual or a copy of one, not the model itself

Look here (on KOHS website):

Fred,

Thanks so much.  I did not realize that it was a Kohs product.  There are 2 switches; one under the tender and one under the engine. I do not know what they control.  The instruction sheets that you sent me do not mention these switches at all.

Does anyone have one of these models and operates it on a layout?

To my knowledge there were only 3 of these Smithsonian engine models offered:  PRR K4, NYC Dreyfus Hudson and a German 2-10-0.

Also offered were the passenger train sets of the NYC 20th Century Limited and the PRR Broadway Limited.

Steve,
I would think that Frank was inferring that maybe "Close Out Train" (since they have one for sale) would have an owners manual that could be copied for you.

Not sure this is what you are looking for.  But it was worth a look.  Lionel smithsonian k4 instructions  It reads right side of page 1 first, then to left side of page 2, across bottom for page three, then back to left side of page one for page four.  

Steve,

I noticed that the instructions on the KOHS website are a four page document in two pages; so they look to be incomplete (left side of the first page is the fourth page!). So if you read in the right order you can find that one switch on the tender is for the sound system; the other on the loco for the smoke unit. 

I have a 2-rail Dreyfuss Hudson which also came without instructions; I thought the sound was very poor and I did not like the batteries and the many loco/tender connections, so I complete removed (or jumpered) all the wiring and now I have a pure DC locomotive which is running nicely silently:

While I was typing TEDW already noticed this page problem

Many thanks for this additional information!
