Here's a link to a article that contains pictures and limited information on a carrier for the K-27.

Just scroll down through the article and you'll come to a section that pictures the carrier.
There is also a article titled Built A Carrier. It shows more pictures and contains a Bill of Materials. This article is further down in the GRBLOG.
Everytime the tender is disconnected from the locomotive there is a risk of pulling/breaking wires. Why take that chance? Use a carrier.
Best way to pick the K-27 up is with fingers under the front pilot and the other hand with fingers inside the cab. Would not recommend just lifting on the back edge of the cab roof.
