Ztrack Magazine's 2006 subscriber cars from FR in Germany are now ready! Ztrack is expecting our shipment in the next two weeks and will start shipping to subscribers immediately there after. These cars are unique to the FR line. The rib count is different from previous PS2-cd releases, plus the cars have a plate on the side for the America's Resourceful Railroad slogan. Two versions of the car are available. The first is an unweathered car as it appeared in the 1980s. The second version is a weathered version and is a surprise. The car is heavily weathered, but lettered for a leasing company. The car is based on an actual photo shot by Harald of FR in 2004. The cars were produced by reservation only. Ztrack 'may' have a small number of these cars available. We will post more information at a later date. If you are a Ztrack subscriber and would like to be placed on the waiting list for the extra cars, please contact us offline at ztrack@aol.com. Rob Kluz
Ztrack Magazine is excited to announce that FR's Milwaukee PS2-cd subscriber cars are now available. The Milwaukee run was produced on a reservation only basis. Two version were released. The first is the circa 1980s Milwaukee Road PS2-Cd. The second version is the circa 2004 hopper after it has been sold to a leasing company. The 2nd version is weathered. For those Ztrack subscribers who missed out on reserving these cars, Ztrack does have a small quantity of cars available. The weathered versions are sold out, but we do have a few of the unweathered available. Orders can be made online at: http://www.ztrack.com/imprint/imprint.html Cars are released on a first come basis. For those wanting weathered cars, Ztrack can put you on a waiting list in case a subscriber passes on their reserved car. Ztrack is also working with FR to finalize the 2007 subscriber car. We do hope to have more information in an upcoming issue of Ztrack. Rob Kluz
I Wish! I wish I had started collecting FR's Covered hoppers when he started releasing them. They are awesome! I do have 2 of the BNSF, but that is the extent of it. These covered hoppers look good on the track! Maybe in the future! Hobo Tim
