A reader asks:
Do you have any O-gauge battery powered sets or locomotives?

Thanks for getting in touch. I am sorry but I don't know anyone who makes battery-powered trains in O gauge these days. Actually I don't sell the trains myself - I just advertise the one I feel good about recommending to my readers.
That said, can I ask why you need a train and/or why it needs to be battery powered? I might be able to suggest an alternative. For example the Lionel Large Scale battery-powered trains aren't much larger than O scale. The track circle is about a foot wider, though, so if space is a premium they might not be your best choice.
There are some Lionel Large Scale battery-powered train listed on the bottom of this page.

Here are two examples on Amazon (though you might be able to find one cheaper in a department or hardware store near you).
