I really am a fan of the Williams models. Look through the whole thread and you will see several. I have the one that Craig posted, a 4935 5 stripe green and another 4935 that is much darker with True Sounds.

I will say the for pulling the MTH and Lionel are at the top. The Weaver is very good, and the Williams, while still good is least powerful. The plastic carbody is the difference. However, on level grades, it's not an issue and on inclines, I've double headed mine in coventional and then the issue is gone!

Bachmann has also done us a favor and made sure all the current releases have prototypical numbers for the paint scheme. That matters to rivet counters like me ...

I'm glad that Bachmann fixed the numbers because that bugged me too. Do you know if they will have Old Rivits in Conrail blue with the correct 4800?

And is there any hope of adding interior lighting and engineer figures to the Williams?
