What a couple of great deals I just scored! ;D I picked up Western Pacific F3 ABBA diesels for a great price from two different sources!!!  Trainworld/Trainland had the B Units for the unheard of price of $49.95 EACH!!! So, I bought TWO!!!! Caboose Hobbies had the AA's on clearance for $209.95.  So for basically for $310.00 I got an A-B-B-A set of Williams by Bachmann Western Pacific F3's!!!!! And of course, they run great!  8)

Hey, Bob. 

Whooo-Eeeee!

Yeee-Ha !

Congrats on your find. 

Careful not to add too many B units to the middle, as you'll have no room at the end of your train for passenger or freight cars.

Joe

If your loco is too heavy to lift, you'd better be able to ride in, on or behind it.

Great fine and those Williams units are the best running engines I know of and look outstanding. I have converted over to WBB engines totally and never looked back. You will have a great time running and enjoying them on your layout.  :)
Thanks

The F-3's look great.
I have several WBB engines, all are good performers.
Nice find.
