hello, i have a few questions, i need to know who builds an HO scale SD70MAC that is DCC equipped, and who makes good rolling stock, i have athearn RTR locomotives and rolling stiock, and athearn genesis locomotives and rolling stock but is there anything better?

thanks
Austin
 
Athearn Genesis is top of the line. Kato also makes an SD70MAC. Neither comes with DCC installed, but both NMRA plugs that allow you to plug in a decoder with no re-wiring needed.

Other high quality names to look for are Atlas, Proto 2000 and Intermountain.
 
The NEWER Genesis come with a plug, the older a circuit board that must be removed, either are considered DCC ready, in my eye, as replacing the board is not all that tough.
