Ready To Order >-)- Re: "very hesitant on producing these items since there had been no comments no interest" This is the first that I am seeing or hearing about this attractive new product for Z. They look great! Nice detail. I am game for a couple four of each as I know others, once they know about it, see it, and can actually order, will probably do the same. Soon as there is lighted finished product to view, that will make the interest all the more. My LED's are already wired........I just need some kits to put them in. Yet anther great project to add to the backlog of things to do. Keep up the great work.
Ed, This was my first item and I was not as lean thinking in my placement and layout as I am today. At this moment, I am revising the artwork to cut costs and increase yield since this part is actually VERY under priced given the yield. To keep the price the same, I have re-tooled so each tower is in it's own sprue instead of having to spend an hour/sheet cutting each part out and bagging the individual parts.
I finished loading all of the new Z-Scale items into the store and as soon as they are in-stock, I will post it. In the meantime, feel free to look at the products in the other scales and suggest them for scaling down for Z.
I am definitely interested in getting some of the light towers and 2-3 of the Z-scale electrical towers. The construction trailer looks very tempting too.
Hi All, The following New Z-Scale items are now in-stock and available from our online store 91ft Tapered Yard Light Tower SP / ATSF Cantilevered Signal Bridge C&O / B&O / SOU Cantilevered Signal Bridge Construction Trailer 50ft Tankcar Loading Platform Tankcar Platform Shelter
Hi Bob, Will these items be offered exclusively on the on-line store? Or will they be offered through the dealers also? Thanks.
Bob, don't see the Light Tower, Cantilevered Signal Bridges or Construction Trailer in Z scale. Have part numbers? On the 0000703 (Z) 50' Tankcar Loading platforms, what is the track centers spacing (like 'A' in the 0000801 (Z) Platform Crossover Bridges).
Hi Jeff, All of the new Z-Scale items are on the front page of the store under Featured Items and under New Items. Here is the store URL: http://store.traincat2.com/ You can adjust the spacing as you need it. If you scaled down the N dims, the Z spacing is 1.00 to 1.0625 for "A" and .75 to .8125 for "B". Again, these are VERY flexible based on your layout and not cast in stone.
John, I'll run them over on the way home from work later this week and save you the shipping if that is OK.
