Like most of the others, I too was into N Scale. A move two years ago forced me to abandon the layout I had, but now I am rebuilding, in HO. I have a ton of N scale locomotives and rolling stock and will be looking into efforts later this year to part company with all of it.

It did it prior to the upgrade as well. I don’t think there is an “infection”

now we are talking!

. I should have clarified, I am hoping to find a single supplier where I can pick the locomotive I want, the dcc and sound options that I want, and the supplier will install those and ship me a final product. Years ago, when I was modeling n scale, I ran across such a company on the internet...

Thanks, I will be looking for high end products.

Great info, I will be looking for dcc installed with train sounds. Thanks again, I will check out the links.

I am starting a new layout in HO. I am looking for a place where I can buy HO locomotives with DCC and Sound cards of my liking installed. Does anyone know of such a store?

An exception to every rule no doubt. These are fine looking backdrops. Who are you buying them from if I may ask? I am wanting to find some industrial and urban backgrounds for my layout and money is no object.

I ordered some brass stuff from them in early February, and some time went by and no shipping notice, or anything, so I started e-mailing them for an update on my order. They hit my paypal account right away that's for sure. Sent a total of 4 e-mails so far, and no reply :( At this point...

Here is another laugher, The box not only looks like it went to war with Iraq, the guy e-mails back a belittling message when you try to make a reasonable offer, and then doesn't even have the guts to let you e-mail him back. Obviously it is cretins like this that not only entertain us, but...

I have not experienced too many issues at all. I check several other internet stores before I make the purchase of course, but sometimes, not always, it works out a little better on E-bay. I am always looking for two special road names for modern locomotives and rolling stock for Indiana...

I am moving on a little further with my BOF, as well as Gary Works US steel plant and should be posting some pictures pretty soon. I still have some vents to install, and some stencil work I wanted to do, but the BOF is painted, assembled and placed. This is N-scale, but the structure still...
