Williams sale at Trainworld

They have been running that sale for a while now,Great deal if you run conventional!

Is it only certain road names? The website shows $199 for AA sets, not ABA. Or do you have to be on the mail list to receive special offers?

Don

The ad that they send with your order had F and E units listed. The e mail had PA's as well with a free B unit. Of course it is limited to stock on hand. The email listings are free ,just sign up on their site.

It's so tempting, but the matte finish kills it for me for their post-war.

They have emds for $99

This morning it was gp38 and U33's Limited road names for 99.99 makes a Beep sound expensive!

When ordering mention this codeword to get the free B unit:

Codeword: FreeB

I went looking on the Trainworld site for the F3 AA on sale for $200. Where is it on their site or did they maybe take it off?

Thanks,

I recently got a SP U33C for 99. And it runs like the pink bunny or a Timex.

you have to mention freeB to get the free B unit
I ordered 3 pairs so far love them for running on the kids part of the layout.

I might get a GP 38 to replace the bottom end of a Weaver GP 38 that the gears keep breaking on.

Does anyone know how many amps the twin motor Williams engines pull ??

And where can one find the extra power trucks to power the dummy A I see it mentioned but it is not on the Williams Website at all? Part # needed?

KJ,
Williams has them listed for both two and three axle trucks, just out of stock. Retail is around $165 but I have seen them for under $100. There are several sites listing them in stock.There is a reversing unit included in the kit.

In typical use its under 2 amps. The E unit is rated for 6 amps. They use the same motor that Lionel and MTH and few others use in their Diesels.

Question for fgroza:
Frank;
I know that this is off-topic but I have to ask -
Are you any relation to Lou "The Toe"?

Chuck,
You're dating us again!

But, Frank does live in the right state to be a possible relative - not too far from Cleveland.

Jim

OK, yes to your question,he was my uncle. You are showing your age!

Frank

Received ATSF PA's from TW, look great. Found a set of cars at Aaronscitytrains in Akron yesterday for a good price. They have wall to wall trains to choose from.

As for my age, I have reached the point that I want people to know that I've traveled many miles and some of those roads weren't paved.
As for your uncle, I remember sitting with my Dad watching him kick for the Cleveland Browns and that nickname stuck in my memory.
Isn't it odd that, back then on most teams, the team's place kicker also was a position player.

It would be worth while and cheaper to buy a U-33C on sale, use the motor and e-unit on your A unit, and use the U-33C for a dummy.

John

Great idea John! I didn't realize the power units were the same.

At one point, the holder might have been the quarterback, Frank Ryan ...

You are correct sir! Lou wore #42 before #76. As he aged, younger players took over the head banging on the line while Lou just kicked. As for Dr. Ryan, he was a non people person,so to speak. Not very much fun to be around. Other members of the team were just like the average guy, glad to give a autograph or shake your hand. Meeting Jim Brown was a rush, being a young teenager and going to the training camp for the day. Lou was just "uncle Lou" but Jim Brown was the "MAN" of the team! Wow! has it been that long ago?
