I'd give it a go to see if there were fewer bugs than I have had with the other two. Thank you for prioritizing the new SD40-2's, I've got 3 on the way. I hope you have enough success to expand your line even more.

Wait, these are in-stock?! I must have missed a memo. Guess I'm blowing my budget big time this month.

3 green machines on the way, life is good! If AZL does the White face, I'll grab them too.It's getting hard to split my time between HO and Z. People will really argue about anything. I beg to differ with you sir!

I will be ordering 3 when they are available in the US.
Can this decoder flash a rotary beacon as on the BN version?
I am assuming I will have to plumb it with a light pipe or fiber optic strand since it is so close to headlight.

Now don't all you retailers wish you had doubled your orders of ES44's from AZL?
Yes, I got mine, but more importantly I got my Green machine SD40-2's! Finally proper power for my coal trains, time to retire my SD45's.
Now how about a rerun of BN coal porters?
Need those SD60's (Oakway and BN) too.
and ....hint C30-7!!!!!!
Now to get me some decoders and dust off the coffee table..

Check for excessive solder on the pads that go under the clips on the frame. I've had to sand those down a bit on some locos.

Has anyone done a review video on this SD40-2?

I have a bunch of GP38's and have a few that run slow. Sometimes warming them up will help, especially if you consist with another unit that will pull it around the layout. But some just are born slow and stay that way. I tend to match them with other speed challenged engines and make a note of it in my roster list.

The destroyer in the diorama is 1:350 scale and Z-Scale is the closest match. Hi Peter, There are a number of resin and 3d printed locomotive IN 1/350 scale. Here's one example: 1/350 Richelieu dockside by Louis CarabottHead over to ModelWarships.com and ask the fine folks on the forum and you will find what you need.

I agree. I shelled out good money for my custom painted by Gerd Oakways and I would buy some AZL factory versions.

Maybe incomplete turnout throws due to momentary switch problems? I use a Circuitron Snapper to throw my turnouts as I use to have a lot on partial throws leaving the points ripe for picking. It is not 100% effective, more like 99% and I have been using it for about 4 years now.
