All this talk about aluminum going away for O gauge prompted me to pick up a set of the WBB Amtrak Aluminum Cars. Very impressed. But I can't really tell if they are painted silver...or its the aluminum just clear coated. The finish is too perfect. But in any event awesome set of cars. And in my quest for Kusan tooling I picked up the WBB Amtrak F7's as well.
Are these Williams Alum. Passenger cars the same ones they have been offering since day 1?

I am not sure about the Williams aluminum passenger cars but I think that they are older Williams passenger cars and not current WBB items. The cars being painted or clear coated is very difficult to say, somebody at Bachmann might know for sure.

There are a lot of You Tube videos about Williams, locomotives and aluminum passenger cars. Just do a YT search and there are a lot to pick from. This is one sample.
Yeah they are definitely the non-scale aluminum cars. I wish the Williams website had more detailed product info. Its very hard to find anything on that site.
The insides have the same matte smooth finish..maybe its the natural look of the rolled aluminum.
The train in the video looks like Williams power and MTH Premier cars.
