I haven't found a good hobby shop yet that's in the Connecticut area and can treat their customers well with fair pricing. Thought I found one in a small shop in central CT, but they ended up being extremely rude when I expressed my disappointment with their failure to take good notes and follow...
all awesome ideas...but today I bit the bullet and bought Tortoise machines. $160 well spent! Thanks for all of the suggestions. If anyone wants some Atlas under tables at a cheap price, PM me.

In the meantime, I ordered the Tsunami decoder today, and purchased a Soundtraxx 810112 speaker. It's looking like I've got some work to do to get...
I have two Atlas New England Central units, numbered 9537 and 9528. Since they were produced, NECR changed their numbers to 3855 and 3848. I'd like to change the number boards and the NECR and numbers on the cab sides to match the font used on these two locos. Any suggestions as to where I can...
