My 9 yr old son has recently become obsessed with the UP Katy and would like one for his upcoming birthday.  Bachmann's Williams has one but it is not in the HO line.  When I search for UP Katy HO, I get pages of trains.  Is there a HO Scale Katy out there?  Also are there trains call "dummies" that you can purchase but they have no innards in them? 

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

We recently had our DCC repaired.  Santa brought 2 DCC turnouts with new engines and ramp set.  Built the track with turnouts and ramps.  My husband programmed one of the turnouts.  After completion of programming the stop LED light and the number 1 LED light started flashing repeatedly.  Could not get them to stop so my husband unplugged them.  When he plugged them back in, the controller had an electrical smell to it.  It was not hot or even warm.  We have switched out the turnouts with the manual turnouts, we have tried to get the analog cotroller to work.  We have switched out both power packs, both track cables, and both pieces of track that you can connect the power cables to.. still nothing but a very sad little 9 year old.  Please help.

If needed, I can take a picture of layout and send or attach.
