K-Line produced items for a long time. Unfortunately, their was a law suit between Lionel and K-Line which resulted in K-Line shutting down and Lionel eventually took them over (not sure exactly when that happened). Dealers that had original KLine stock were allowed to sell it off, (I got my K-Line TMCC PRR K4 that way) all their inventory. Much it went. If you Google the items you want, If I recall a website will pop up with a catalog list that you can thumb through. Not much help, that is the history at a high level and from what I can remember.

Nicholas Smith trains has these in stock.  They are on the first floor.

here's is the Loading platform description-yes it was made and there are some in the secondary market. I don't think Lionel ever reproduced it. I didn't find a video of it operating.

K-Line had their own remote to operate the newer accessories.

The doors were offset, unprototypically, on these?  They should have made them as double door Hanrahan cars with the one door permanently closed and the far door operating....would have looked a lot better.  I'd be looking for THAT, if it was lettered for Colorado Midland.

Hello, I am new to these forums but not to Lionel Trains.  My main interest is large scale.  I have an extensive garden railway.   I like to recreate operating accessories and rolling stock in the larger scale.

While on Youtube, last night, I saw a film about the various milk car releases from Lionel.  The last portion of the film shows a still photo of the K-Line milk car and loading depot, #s 703-8011 and 42407 respectively.  This pops up at 2:45 in the video.  I've done a search of Lionel's and K-Line's sites and cannot find the loading depot, nor can I find any videos of it in operation.

Was the loading depot ever produced.  

 

Here are some of the operating items I've made.
