Thanks for responding.  I don't know how to get the stock number.  I did find this on u-tube which looks exactly like my engine.  Hope this helps.

Need some more information to identify the locomotive.

Who is the manufacturer of the locomotive?

How old is the locomotive?

Do you have the box for the locomotive? The stock number should be on it.

Thanks.  I found the box it came in.  This is the info:
Rail King
Rugged Rails Series
4-6-0 Steam Engine
w/Proto-Sound 3.0
Item no. 30-4210-1E

I guess my bad for stating it was Lionel

Thanks
