I see you are new.....but you draw more answers with honey than vinegar.

The problem is your question has no 100% correct answer.

That loco has gone through a number of variations.....and may go through more.

WbB acquired a good amount of Williams new old stock and sold it as WbB.

So unless you see it in hand.....it could be old stock Williams or new build WbB.....and I doubt anyone here can guarantee what you will get if you buy sight unseen.

Call the shop or dealer you buy from and ask!!! Only way to know for sure.

Hope you feel better.

Rick,.......Welcome to the OGR Forum

I must agree with Dave on this one. I'll add one more tid-bit...Chill Most of the better WbB do have a "tether". The reason being, the brains are in the tender.

Now that you've had a little time to...Chill. Sit back and read a while. Take a ride on the OGR forum and never leave your chair.

God Bless,

"Pappy"

You were expecting extremely rapid responses instead of accurate information?
