DCC

[judgethe]

Setting the track up on a linoleum covered floor is much better than on a carpet.

If you can deal on eBay, have a look at the seller who uses the name thefavoritespot.  He presently has a number of Bachmann DCC equipped FT A diesel locomotives with a buy it now price of $31.  If you live in the USA, shipping will add about another $10.  This link will take you to just one of his locomotives at this price:

I have dealt with thefavoritespot many times and have never had a problem.  And I doubt you will find a lower price for a brand new locomotive that has DCC on board.
