I am completely new to HO and am beginning to assemble components to build a 6' X 12' layout. Have Digitrax SEB, Code 83 Atlas Flex, roadbed and bench work materials on hand. Have backordered H-10-44 (UP) DCC with sound hopefully due in February. Looking for suggestions on sources for locomotives both diesel and steam, new, with DCC and sound that would be in stock. Are most purchased online or through specific hobby shops? Looking for any information on preferred sources. Also is one manufacture preferred over the others for diesel and/or for steam?

Thanks for your thoughts and Happy Holidays.

I use Walther's and Ebay. I have had great experiences with Walther's, they are good people dedicated to the hobby. Ebay, I try to buy from the ebay stores but do buy some rolling stock from individuals both through the "Buy it now" and auctions.

Train shows are also a good resource for buying.
