O.K. For the past two years, I've been trying to get an N scale layout set up in my room. I just haven't had enough time or money. I'm only 16, and it's hard to do stiff like this when you have school, a job, and a car to pay for.
A couple days ago, I found some used Atlas and Bachmann Code 100 track that the local train club gave me when I visited them about 4-5 years ago. My uncle gave me some old cars, too, but they have the hook couplers instead of the knuckle couplers. The engines he gave me were crap, too, and we tried working on them and decided to get a new engine.
Now, does anybody know where to get a good HO engine for under $50? Possibly on the internet, because all the local hobby stores sell cars and airplanes.
Thanks.
Oh! Don't think I don't know anything about model trains. I've been helping my dad out, so I'm not new to the hobby, just new to HO.
