I wonder how well these will pull? Are they going to be a small switchers equal with weight added, or will they have the staying power of a weak handcar/trolley and cook motors if you pull anything substantial?

Maybe double/triple headed?

  Is there maybe something like an unpowered "Hump-T/Dummy -T" car ? ( )

The concept might allow a very small loco, or odd shaped locos (compressed air/mine locos, a low calf unit, etc,) with a very small or no motor in the loco/tender, being pushed along.

WOO HOO! Another WbB product that will see maybe two runs then get discontinued and you'll have no chance of getting parts for. Just what we all want!

I hate to be the turd in the punch bowl, but I gotta call it like I see it. For those of you that want it, nothing personal, I hope you all really enjoy it.

Agree 100%.  It’s a cute novelty and all, but the Williams line has so much potential that’s being ignored by Bachmann.  Look at their GP30- a locomotive that was owned by many railroads over the years, yet was offered in what, 6 paint schemes?  I would have bought a Conrail version in a heartbeat. 

Oh well.
