We just heard from our factory that we will receive the construction drawings next March. Hopefully that translates into delivery about this time next year.

I honestly forgot about the one 3 axle truck on the FL9. As I said, not a likely AZL candidate. Then a FP7 or a PA are better bets. Well even I can be dreaming, but we should focus on getting the F7, E8 rerun, SW1500/SW1000 and the SD40-2 family completed. Hopefully more updates on those projects in December.

Not sure if NH had F7As. They did have the FL9 which is a longer locomotive. AZL have no immediate plans for this locomotive

We are undecided on structures. It is also a time issue for us. And we will not do more painted resin structures for sure. At the moment I think it is good to support what is already out there. Anything from resin, plastic kits, brass kits, laser structures, cardboard, architectural cardboard and 3D printed. Maybe we will take a close look at modular buildings and develop something. Or hope that maybe DPM gets into Z. Do agree that there is an overall lack of buildings in Z scale, but the selection is growing.

Yes they were painted Silver. You are looking at the first plastic samples that were moulded black. We will show preproduction samples when they are ready. With Silver trucks.

We just shot a short video that will that we will air tomorrow. We are setting up a unique tread in the AZL Product Announcement section. Hopefully we can do this every month from now on.

This is called the long wait. Very typical for this stage of product development. The SD40-2 project is complex with all the variations, thus development will take time. Appreciate the patience.
