Santa Fe Railroad Tug
AT&SF - Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway
I plan to build a railroad barge to push around with a few "G" scale tank cars on deck, similar to the one in my pictures.

Try here:

I know its a scary long link but I think this is what you are looking for, Company is called CPC Colder.
Just copy and paste in your browser.
You didn't give dimensions in your post, These have an 1/8" ID. Good Luck!

You likely already know, LED's are polarity sensitive so if some don't light reverse it's polarity.

📝 Looking for Build instructions of a Krick Model II

Thanks Chris. I picked it up on eBay along with an unbuilt Stuart 501 boiler and what I think are most of the Krick fittings for a Patricia steam launch. Wish I had the hull to go with it!

Thanks Rick,
I have run this on steam and it runs well. I just wanted instructions to make sure there were no "model specific" instructions before I tested. I did oil it well with steam oil and ran it slow and steady for about 10 minutes. All seemed well with only slight leakage around the throttle/direction control valve.

Hello all,
I have recently picked up a Krick marine power plant likely from a Patricia. If anyone can help I am looking for a copy or a scan of the assembly/operating instructions. Attached are a couple of pictures.
Happy Holidays to you all.
