Good Morning Everyone, I'm looking for some detail parts, locomotives, cabooses, hopper cars and flat cars. Can anyone recommend some good sources. Thanks for your suggestions, they are very much appreciated.
Have a great weekend.

eBay is a source. I use it. Searching "brass" and just cruising through the "details and parts" sub-category is a good place to start, as this is historically the most common material used for detail parts, even for plastic diesels and the like.
Des Plaines Hobbies (http://www.desplaineshobbies.c...-Scale-Detail-Parts/ is a list of diesel detail parts) carries a variety of O scale detail parts for engines and both freight and passenger cars. Their website does not provide images for every product but if you know what you are looking for that is not a big issue.
A big thank you to everyone who replied to my questions, your answers are very much appreciated. Have a terrific weekend.
I could add San Juan Details (formerly Grandt Line)
Precision Scale has been/is a supplier of O scale parts for decades!
Bowser of PA has some Cal Scale items.
