WHO LIKES THE K-LINE PORTER.
I just love my little teakettle. I guarantee you this will not be my only one. i just hope they become available with several roadname choices like the Beeps.
It is obvious they are built in China since the engineer resides in the fireman’s seat, just like they do over there!

I will be buying at least one–possibly more–depending on what roadnames are eventually offered. Will start out with one of the versions due to be released in September, and hope that they have modified/corrected the alignment between the rod and piston.
I love my Bachmann On30 Porter 0-4-2. It is the proper size for such a little engine. BTW if you want to see a similar prototype engine to the Poerter 0-4-0T there is a real one on display at the old C of G roundhouse in Savannah, GA. IMO the Kline Porter 0-4-0T is way overscale. Oh well to each his own. Odd-d
I can’t wait to get mine … do they come with standard Lionel couplers or only the scale size ones?

I have the PRR version that was sold by K-Line around the time of the train meet in York, PA in April. Great little engine and it looks perfectly scaled compared to the larger rolling stock and the larger “O” gauge engines that I have.
We’ve received the Porter and a sample of the Super Streets from K-Line and I’ll be running reviews of both in upcoming issues.
