Peter,

This is the only place I have seen pictures, part numbers and descriptions of the K-27s. Hope this helps. It is the MicroMark web site.

  If you call the various dealers (Trainworld, St. Aubins, Caboose Hobbies, Wholesale Trains, etc...) they have part no.s for the various K-27 models. On one of the other K-27 threads there were pictures of the painted samples that were displayed at a recent show. By combining the information you should be able to get enough to order what you need.

As a general rule, we don't see part numbers on the Bachmann forums until the units are actually released.
This particular release was plagued with "talk, don't talk, talk, secret, what K-27?" for so long, I do believe the worker bees are just not doing anything until directed from above in writing.

hi guys,just aquick note to all for the info-re k-27,are they going to be sound ready,as from what i have read re-3-truck shay,sound,your better off,to add this later,maybe go all they way,convert to battery power,as many of you have,thanks peter..

Umm.......that and more on the K has been available for over two months.
Seems someone didn't know what "keep it to yourself" meant.
It will have a non-nmra-approved (as of this writing) 23 pin socket assembly with a "dummy plug".
If you want to read more on it, go to www.mylargescale.com, look in "dcc forums", look for "k-27 electronics" thread.

There are several other threads of interest.

But, I thought he was asking on part numbers.
