Hello everyone! This is Joshua, its been a few years since I been here but used to have some frequent flyer points before the layoff. I'm now employed and getting back into the game and have my first question since my relapse into this addiction. I was at a train show today and there was a guy selling this gorgeous SD75 in the Santa Fe Warbonnet Scheme, I knew nothing about it and almost passed it up but the details were so amazing for O-Scale I had no choice but to add it to hoard. Since I never seen this offered by neither K-Line or Lionel I came home and have been researching it with no luck. I can't find anything that acknowledges its existence not even from Lionel. Details: It is in a Lionel box It has K-Line on the fuel tank. I has "Reverse switch" but not the "Smoke, command, sound, volume" switches available under the roof compartment. the detail is freakish, it has lifts, added grabs, windshield wipers, engineer figure in passenger side of engine (Or drivers side in a car), Cut levers, fuel lines, etc. I'll see if I can figure out how to add photos in rail images and post them. Thanks for your time. Sincerely, Joshua.
Joshua, re: Lionel by K-Line #2-11560 Santa Fe SD75........... I ran into the same situation this past weekend. While attending a local train show, I came upon this beautifully detailed "LIONEL" SD75 diesel. Couldn't pass up the opportunity and after a little haggling, I brought it home. Question - do you still have yours and do you have the manual that came with it?? Mine didn't have one in the box and I'm anxious to get a copy, for several reasons. First and foremost, for myself, but to also send a copy to both LIONEL and some K-Line "specialists" Lionel referred me to - neither of which knew anything about these engines. Would greatly appreciate your getting back to me or anyone else who could help. I'm new at this and hope I'm doing it correctly. Thanks much!! QUOTE=BNSFtheLeader;809641]Hello everyone!

Hi, I have a K line SD75. There is a klinelegacy.com web sight that tells about this engine. Lionel had to finish the production after sueing K-line and winning the case. If you would like to talk more you can email me at cr_encourager@friendschurch.org Also i didnt like my sound so i upgraded with a newer lionel sound card! You can ck it out on youtube by searching Richard Oehrig or K line SD-75. Or call me 907-347-5333.
