Actually, freight trains that needed to get somewhere quick and there was no available M1 would usually use double headed K4s. This was until the Depression and surplus locos were used instead. There is a picture of a single K2 pulling the Man o' War in 1925 in a Keystone issue I have.

Now that's a picture that should be shared!

It's hard to say "never" or "always" with the Pennsy.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

I'm sure it's fine. It's a Kato loco. They aren't known for being bad pullers or underpowered.
