Hi GUYZ,
Welcome to Whistle Stop Wednesday Videos This week's featured engine is the MTH PRR K4S, better known as the Torpedo. This engine is NOS from about 2008, runs and sounds great. Hope you enjoy this video.

Love the Torpedoe. I have an early Lionel TMCC version at 1 chuff per revolution. Still a favorite. Enjoyed the video LAZ. Watch out for those packs of Big Feet.
Oh, my golly Laz, that is a beauty. Looks like it runs nicely. Great item for your collection. What does NOS mean?
Thanks GUYZ a for the CONGAS!
MARTY, them BIG FEETs are on the move.
WOOD, NOS is New Old Stock. Older engine that wasn’t on the tracks or run.
Nice score, LAZ!! I picked up the same loco during the start of the pandemic in 2020; NOS as well; it was my "Nobody got to go to York" consolation purchase. MTH really did a nice job on this one. It's one of my favorite streamliners because Lionel did a great version of it back in the 1930s.......the 238E. It was far from scale, but still a fun representation of a Pennsy icon.
Great video Laz. Only one question. I have several MTH engines and if I use the SSD they do talk. Did you use the SSD or normal shut off? Was wondering why they did NOT put voices in the shutdown if it was with SSD. That would be the first one that I have seen. Great Video keep them coming. Oh, and don't you become a member of snob hill. You said you have something coming and I hope it isn't membership. LOL
Thanks again GUYZ a for the CONGAs!
CURTISH, I use the normal shut down. I will use the SSD and see. Thanks. Yes something is happening at SNOB HILL, sometime after the New Year, stay tuned…
