I just got a new Williams by Bachmann catalog yesterday in the mail. One side has Williams trains and the other side has their other trains, Bachmann trains in H.O. to G scale.
No Reading Company passenger cars! Also limited selection of GP-38's.

Bachmann's been releasing the catalog in that format for several years, now.
It was mentioned in another thread that Bachmann times new releases for Toy Fair.

That makes the third catalog I got in the mail from Bachmann in the past two years.
I have looked at the online catalog too. I would do better with prices from www.trainworld.com

Are the new RS-3 or any GP30's in the catalog? The geeps have been out for over a year now and the RS-3 are from K-line tooling. I'm still on the fence about getting the Seaboard RS-3 only because it lacks a command system.

Lee you absolutely correct about Trainworld offering the best prices for Williams. For us conventional operators they have a great sale going on now for steamers. They may not be your road name but at those prices they are certainly candidates for repaint.

Did not see any RS-3's in the catalog. The GP-30's are the same four as they usually have nothing new there either.

I've never been on Pat's website until this post and you are right. Thanks for the heads-up!
In all my years of collecting model trains, I've never seen a catalog from any manufacturer where the prices were less expensive than what you could get from certain retailers.
Bachmann's prices in the catalog are always more then dealer prices. I guess it gives the dealer wiggle room as they say.
Right now trainworld has a 44 tonner on sale for $74.95, limited models.
