Does anybody happen to know which of the 2700's were favorites of the engine crews?<p>Thanks in advance.<p>Ted Vasbinder<br>

Ted-<p>From what I read the K-4's were all well liked by the crews that ran them. They were called "Big Mikes"<p>Are you looking for a particular place that a certain K-4 ran? I may have a couple numbers that my great grandfather was on in coal / freight service on the Big Sandy<p>I'd also suggest contacting Bill Sparkmon. He's a good authority on K-4's and Handley WV <p>Good luck!<br>Matt Crouch<br>
