New Williams transformer and Metroliners

[cnw1995]

I've mentioned about the $149.95 150 Williams transformer in the CW80 1033 thread - it looks like a nice deal. I also noticed Williams is selling 4 unit Budd Metroliners for $399 - in Pennsy, Amtrak and Penn Central liveries. 15'' long / 031 curves. They look sharp.

Doug,
thanks for the information. I will go to the web site. I am seriously concidering the Williams deal for the Hudson/passenger set, so perhaps I can throw a Transformer in to boot.

well their website doesn't mention anything about the transformer or the 4 pk Metroliner.....

Still wonder why they still have this home page with the Summer 2004 collection...

We reviewed the Metroliners back in 2001 - but they date as far back as 1980 I believe. Great pieces that are not actually in stock all that often - I just may order the Pennsy.

Doug,
As mentioned above, the website does not list any transformers. How do I find information? Any suggestions? Thanks, dennis

I've seen no mention of the transformer in any of the flyers, but I did misplace one with deisels and passenger cars. I'll bet it was in that one.

Jim, neither have I seen anything about their transformers.

Bob, you know anything about these transformers?

If anyone has the flyer with the transformer in it, would you please scan and post it for the rest of us to see?

The blurb says:

"Transformer 150, Features: 150 watts, Horn, Whistle & bell controls, brake feature, direction control, 12 Volt constant voltage output for accessories, overload indicator. Market Value $199.95, Your price $149.95, Save $50.00"

Bob,
Thanks. I became a platinum club member with the GG1 deal and did not get a flyer with the transformer in it. It seems the deal brings the price to about what is expected from the other transformers in $1.00 per watt.

Sorry guys, I thought I mentioned their latest color brochure came in yesterday's mail. That is neat about the Metroliners - I've been getting the Williams brochures for a few years now and never noticed them before - serves me right for assuming they might be new. They also showed the neatest looking Sharks.
