Where to buy lead (or other) weights for HO locos?

Yes, you can buy it. Comes in little 1/2 or 1/4 ounce squares. If you need to fit a custom space, you can pour your own. Doctorwayne has an informative tutorial about doing it yourself. You will need to take precautions when melting and pouring lead, but it is doable.

One alternative is to fill the space with lead or other heavy shot, and then pour in some epoxy to secure it all. You will probably want to line the space though so the expoxy doesn't leak out...! Wink Big Grin
