This kit contained the A.C. Gilbert 4-6-2 superstructure, and a custom cast-brass chassis. The kit could be built into a complete, running model, including the cast-brass PRR tender trucks. It had a Pittman DC-91 motor.

This kit enabled the modeler to convert an A.C. Gilbert American Flyer locomotive and tender of this wheel configuration from hi-rail/tinplate to "scale". The kit contained replacement wheels/axles for tender, pilot, and trailing trucks as well as scale drivers and axles. The axles had "D"-shaped ends, and the zamac driver centers had "D"-shaped openings to match. This design assured proper quartering. The modeler had to remove the AF drivers, axles, and worm gear, then use the reverse procedure to install the scale versions (applied using the jaws of a vice to keep the drivers perpendicular to the axles).

Jim Kindraka reported in the early 1990s that some of these locomotives could develop problems with the universal joint. The collars can crack on either or both sides (the plastic used for them was of poor quality). Ideally, a replacement can be found in the original Overland Models' F3 or F7 locomotives. River Raisin Models produced a number of extra ones in 1991, called their "Redrive Kit" (you may be able to find them on the secondary market). If using one of these kits, the smaller of the two shaft holes needs to be drilled out for the 4-6-2. Use a #41 drill bit. Removal of motor will be necessary on the model, and then carefully, but firmly, press fitting the new universal on both shafts.
Ed Sauers reported that his model's center driver wheel wasn't touching the rails. Through experimentation, he found a screw under the motor that controls the motor's angle. By loosening that screw just a little bit, it allowed the driver to settle down on the rail.
