Cheap Train Websites

[Guilford Guy]

Hey Guilford Guy, where do you see Spectrum DCC engines for $20 on the Model Train Stuff site?  Lowest I saw was $59.

Thanks,
Arthur

According to my Bachmann catalogs (2007 and 2008) they don't make a model 82701.  They have an 82711 DCC equipped that lists for $115.

If they earlier made an 82701 that was only DCC ready. then the 32 in stock must be at least 3 years old.  So you have to spend another $20 for a decoder and you still have an older loco.

Well it is obvious that these are older stock, the new stock has been upgraded to include the DCC unit.

With a price of $19.99 certainly worth considering.
