Looking for CB&Q steam, diesel

[garden_specialist]

I am considering building an N-scale layout based on the CB&Q. When I was young I lived in Aurora, IL where the Burlington shops were located. My father worked there.

I found an archive of the CB&Q steam locomotives and was wondering if any were ever modeled by any manufacturer such as Precision Craft, Atlas, etc.

I am especially intrigued by the quality of Precision Craft models and would very much like to buy their stuff.

I especially like the O5 (4-8-4)

The Precision Craft N-scale web page shows a picture of an EMD E7 Burlington diesel engine but it is not listed in the available catalog. I would really like to have one of these engines also. Does any one know where else I could get one?

In all cases I want sound and DCC.
