I've been searching for a K-Line operating milk car. They are almost nonexistent on Evilbay. I do have a question about it however. Does it require an operating track section to unload the milk cans ? Somewhere I seem to recall reading where it could be controlled via remote transmitter in the same way the Williams by Bachmann operating cars work.

Just sent you a message, Fred.
So I have the W by B remote, along with the three operating cars they produced to accompany it. The operating boxcar, coal dump and log dump cars. Obviously these cars and remote are or were originally K-Line products.
Fred has the milk car that I want. He also has the remote, which I may not need, as I have the W by B remote.
My question is will the W by B remote work with the K-Line milk car ?
This is way late, but for anyone looking, The Williams by Bachman Remote does not work with K-Line (or K-Line by Lionel) cars. Apparently they use different radio frequencies. I have several of each.
