Here's the new engine set pulling a longer string of Lionel aluminum Santa Fe cars (except for the MTH Santa Fe express reefer). A Lionel TMCC Santa Fe F7 ABA set, with the lead A and B behind it both powered, since it's a longer train are what usually pulls my Super Chief. But the 2-motored conventional FA pulled the whole train without a whimper, just like in the old days. In fact, I had to slow it down so it wouldn't come off at the curves! I love the efficiency of Williams's bullet proof, stump-puller diesels!
So, it's nice to have the good old Williams ALCO Fs back. 😀

Nice looking set Vern. I have several Williams and WbB engines and they are great runners. Re-wire the motors in series and you can eliminate the jack-rabbit starts.
