Nice!

I had my eye on this one for a few weeks on trainz.com.  I watched as the price started to drop and kind of "Played chicken" waiting to see how low the price would go.  When it went down to $140 I pounced.

I've had it a little over a week.  The set's in beautiful shape but I have to do some upgrading to the lighting system.  No biggie, it's underway and going spendidly.

I'll tell you, I've never been disppointed with any Williams product I've purchased, they were always great value for the money spent.  Still are when you find them!

True it is a shame that Bachmann has no idea what to do with the tooling they bought from Mr Williams!

Nice.  They look like they are from the same K-Line series as the South Shore interurbans that I previously posted in the Electric Pics thread.

Yes they may be from the same tooling!
