    Kim, thanks for all the nice photos. Looks like AZL is definitely increasing the offerings for Z!

    I know the AZL GP7s are old news for the most part, but can someone tell if the new ATSF GP 7 has the smaller fuel tanks like the UP & PRR or the larger one found on the C&O and Nickel Plate Road.

    Always enjoy playing with the Legos, also very cool.

    Keep the updates coming as you get the opportunity.

    OOHH, that SD40 looks great. It just need to be painted in CSX colors.

    Congratualtions and thanks! Great updates and great information!
    Wow, they are really good years coming for Z, so much new stuff is coming. I have to tighten up the budget!
    And very good chances for Z to grow as we get lots of high quality stuff, I think that makes really a difference to N scale (apart from the size :) )
    Kim, please try to find out what else is coming from other Z manufactureres, especially kits

    Kim,
    Did Marklin have any North American- seems they are dropping the ball.
    Keep Randy away from that big ship at the intermodal docks! It won't fit in his suitcase!
    Your Z Bend signs show up very well in the background of some of the overscale site pictures.
    How bout some pictures of Karin's Karnival, Mr. Dave's Dominion, and other good stuff.
    Keep the pictures coming, they are great!
    Fred
    And thanks VERY much!

    MTL was on the job and had a booth? Joe was there as well? I really missed out. I looked for them in the program and couldn't find their booth. I didn't get through all the booths so ...darn...I missed them.

    Good to see they were there... after all. Sheesh! My bad!

    Great pictures. These must have been taken on Saturday.
