Shortline Histories: History of China Rail’s 6K Chinese Electric Locomotive by Charming's HO Model 

Part of the Shortline-Uncommon Model Train Series
In this series I hope to tell you a little bit about a model train that I find quirky or uncommon to me as an American (even if that train is American!). I hope that you'll find something to like about them, too, even if you're familiar with them!
Detailed Look: Chinese Charming Models China Rail 6K Electric Locomotive (Hitachi and Kawasaki)
Born of a collaboration between the Chinese government, Hitachi, and Kawasaki, the 6K was one of China's first reliable heavy-use coal hauling electric locomotives.
Making appearances are a Charming Models 8K and CMR Line C62K coal hopper
Update! The К stands for кремний, the Russian word for silicon #modeltrain #modelrailroad #hoscale #hogauge #modeldiorama #modellocomotive #miniaturerailroad #train #locomotive #railroading #modelbahn #modellbahn #modelbahnen #modeltrains #modelrailroading #modelrailways #modelrailroading #howto #howtovideo #miniatures #miniaturerailroad #coupler
