Hi Chris,

I picked up the Williams NYC GP30 from Nassau Hobby as a replacement to a steam engine I purchased and received which was not working. In fact, this is the first non-steam addition to my collection and I really do love it.

Here is a link to a few pictures, I can take some video of it this weekend if you'd like to see some, I did find this youtube link of someone else running theirs (NOT MY VIDEO):

I did "wire it in series" because it didn't really have much of a slow speed, the thing is super-fast without modifications. Here is a link about this:

Overall I really enjoy it, my first diesel, my first WBB, just a really neat locomotive.

Best...Rich Murnane
