What happened to old pre-WBB Williams Stock?

Try Western depot. They might have it. I found a B&M Bud car that the WBB is not doing.

Cgris is correct.  Western Depot still has  original Williams stock.  I got an Alaska Railroad Geep in the black with yellow stipes livery from the Western Depot.

Charlie Phillips bought all the parts stock and he sells Williams trains too. I would call him.

Western Depot seems to have most of the pre-Bachmann Williams items if they are to be found! I bought a Reading Lines GP-38 that was dis-continued by WBB.

 

The second best to try is Marty at Ma & Pa (Maryland and Pennsylvania) Junction, he has a few left-over Williams items before Bachmann. Marty is not easy to get a hold of, so email him instead and he will usually get back to you within a week.

Thanks guys.  I tried Western Depot and Charlie Phillips but neither of them has the Illinois Central E7's that I am looking to buy.

 

But those seem to be really good sources for other old Williams items.  Maybe that information will help others find what they might be looking to track down.

If you can't find it there try posting a want to buy add on here in the misc. section.

Thanks Lee.  I posted a want ad on the forum a couple of weeks ago, but nobody responded yet.

 

Thanks again for the tip about Marty at Ma & Pa.  I left him a message.

I just posted a listing for the Santa Fe F-7's with passenger cars.

It might take a few days to get some interest.

Jtrain, Marty has been out of business for a number of months now. His inventory is being liquidated by Alex Cooper Auctions this weekend. There was a thread about it last week:

Good luk,

 

Tim

Thanks for all the information everyone. I am really sorry to hear about Marty.

 

The Alex Cooper auction has a lot of stuff, wow! Unfortunately, they do not have the Illinois Central E7's that I am looking to buy.

 

Tim, those IC diesels listed in the Alex Cooper auction are actually WBB F3's, but thanks for the tip!  (The IC E7's are pre-WBB, so they would be in the old red Williams boxes).

Hello;  I have a set of used Williams,  Illinois Central F-7 AA.  These have clear shells and have all the decals.  I purchased these a number of years ago on ebay and never ran them.  They came with a certificate of ownership  stating that they are a "Prototype Clear F7  AA units by Williams Reproductions."  The certificate is signed by a Richard Ford and dated July 20, 1984.  If interested,  feel free to contact me.  thanks.  wayne(walter)

Wayne, That sounds like a nice set, but I am really just looking for the E7's. I would also buy the MTH E6 ABA set that they did in Illinois Central a few years ago, if I could find it. Thanks for the offer.
