I order my wire from Jill at Miniature Lamp Works...
She has the black in super flex wire, If I need red she has 24gauge. Contact her for your needs.

thanks Marty....
Amazon....
If you want a wide selection of wire, tefzel coated (the good stuff) for aircraft use, I suggest:
B & C Specialty Products
You can obtain any length of any gauge you desire. I've used 'em for years. Both trains and airplanes.

Me too.
I think I have most of the different styles of replacement wire she sells for repairing trains.
She sells hook up wire too.
Here is a link: Miniature Lamp Works
MIniatronics has a great selection of 22 gauge wire in a variety of colors....very handy in extending colored-wire accessory harnesses. Black, gray, green, orange, red, violet, white, yellow....100 ft. per color for $11.95, msrp.
Direct or well-stocked LHS's.....like ours!
They also have other gauges, too.
Hope this helps.

thanks all for the info......
Allied Wire and Cable’s Bargain Bin. Great high quality wire. Usually you can get 200ft of 22 for about $8.
There is always eBay with lots of options.
Joe,
Try "CHARLIES Trains", he has all kinds of Wire. Different Gauges, Colors, Lengths, Spools. I have been using his Stuff for many years. In addition, he has all kinds of Terminal Connectors. Spade, Looped, etc. AND his prices are good.
A few Tips: Use 18 GA. or Larger for all Power Feeds. 22 GA. might be good for accessories NOT requiring Heavy Amperage Loads. ALWAYS use Stranded Wire!!!!
If I can help you, let me know and I would be glad to give you Contact Info.!!!

Is Charlie's Trains still in business?
I wrote to them a couple of times over the past few years, including money for a new list of available items, and never received anything back.

I talked to Charlie Clark ( Charlie’s Trains) about 2 weeks ago! He had fallen and broke his Pelvis, but was recovering! The Lady you talked to probably was his Daughter in Law who he was living with! So sorry to hear that he had passed!! Been doing business with him for Years!!!
God rest his soul !!!

Thanks, she had responded to my letter, so I was not sure. It had a return address of MN not WI.
Sorry to read of Charlie. In the future, you could try Davis Lyons at Wireplex. I've not been in contact recently but he was fair and reasonable
