Has anyone seen one of the new Bachmann K3 Moguls? It looks like a
nice model, and I am quite keen to start accumulating a few lighter
engines since I have an A3, an A4 and a Deltic to satisfy the "need
for speed"; I like the N2 and would really like an Ivatt Atlantic if
I could be confident I could build one well. Anyway, the K3 looks
nice on paper, but what's it like in the... er... plastic?

It is a nice model; I've got a couple and they have lived up to all my hopes
& expectations.

Just one comment, I'm not sure whether the boiler is ... er ... plastic - it
might be metal, because it's a fairly weighty model.

John.
