WILLIAMS GG200S GG-1 A-A SET
Williams Crown Edition Line double headed PRR GG-1 set from 1996 (almost 20 years old).
What is interesting is that it is a traditional size cast metal body set of two PRR GG-1s - One powered unit and one dummy unit. The dummy unit has a "True Sounds" board.
The advertising on the box says:
1. Live sound recordings of an actual diesel - low, medium and high.
2. Live sound recording of the diesel horn and bell.
3. Live sound recordings of the engineer
The November 1996 Williams sales flyer states that the Williams GG-1 has a True-Sounds recording of traction motors and a single note GG-1 horn. Therefore the information on the Williams box for this set is in error. The GG-1 does NOT have diesel sounds according to the Williams sales flyer.
The chassis of each is painted in Pennsy Tuscan with 5 stripes (road numbers are 4816 and 4818)
The original invoice for this set shows that the set was shipped direct from Williams. (dated December 9, 1996)
Invoice price was $469.00 (That is a lot of money for a very basic model train in 1996)
Note: This set is a good match for the MTH 20-6017 4-car 60 foot smoothside aluminum passenger set.
