DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN BUY THE DECODER SOCKETS WITH WIRE THAT THE DECODER PLUGS INTO
Bruce at www.litchfieldstation.com carries a lot of the smaller goodies needed for decoder installation. Click on the DCC accessories button on the left on the home page.
He sells sockets, harnesses wire etc.
Three good sources for wiring harnesses, depending on which one is closest to you:
