I don't think C.R.E. has any official website. If you look on a few of the online train shops, the CRE products should be there. According to my local dealer, Bill Rule, of Rule's Model Trains in Manheim, PA (he is also listed in Model Railroader), they are from somewhere in California. They seem to have come out of nowhere, but I feel that their lighting kits are the best. Bill also said that most modelers haven't noticed them in his store. Again, the kits come in a plastic bag on a cardboard back, clearly stating what kind of engine it will fit. I guarantee there's one for every Athearn engine imaginable. So far I have done 2 SD40-2s, a GP38-2, a GP40-2, and 2 GP60s, and they are the most visually stunning thing when they run. <br />The nice thing is that the power supply locks onto the motor contact, unlike Accurate Lighting's which needs to be taped, making installation twice as easy. Hope you can find them somewhere. <br />
