Recently I have seen a couple of K-Line locomotives that are very nice, but because I run all of our equipment, I am concerned about parts availability. Is this a legitimate issue, or is it akin to finding parts for, say, postwar locos where there is no shortage of parts and excellent vendors? Thanks in advance for the advice.

Brasseur has most of the available K Line parts. These parts are much harder to find than poatwar.
I believe this is an issue for runners of the K-line equipment. I bought the Reading F3 ABA (2005) with 6 passenger cars. It runs well, however I am at a loss for some of the parts. Brasseur does have some but not a large supply and it is very difficult to determine part numbers so you have to comb through the list or talk to one of their staff. I need new diaphrams for the engines and they are no longer available.
My question to address this is: Are their any forum members who might be able to repair the K-line and/or modify them to keep them looking neat and running?
