I just want to say why I was a loyal customer. I liked the robust nature of the locomotives that had little problems. One of the features of the company that I liked was the platinum club, and the ability to buy trains directly from Williams using the three payment method. That's how I was able to buy my Hudson - on three payments. I hope Bachmann continues with a three payment method because the dealers don't have that option available. Today on this Friday before Christmas I was able to set up a train for the department and I'm using a set of Williams GP-9's in the Canadian National roadname. I wonder if anyone will buy a train after seeing this one up for two days! I know some of them will take a trip down memory lane.
