Converting K-Line Hudson to Legacy | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

LouOGR Forum Member

Has anyone attempted this? I'm thinking I can use most of the parts from a Lionel Legacy Mikado. Older TMCC engines are starting to show their age. They just don't run that great even with ERR cruise.

It shouldn't be that hard if you have the parts. If Lionel used the same gear on their Legacy Mikado that K-Line did on their TMCC Mikado its a simple parts swap. The K-Line Mikado and Hudson used the same motor. Personally I don't find Legacy speed control significantly better than ERR cruise but your mileage obviously varies.

It is easier than you think, but Lionel seems to be taking these types of parts off the website to prevent it. G
