With a profound sense of saddens I must report that we have sold our last Union Pacific GP7 starter set. This was the first starter set we offered for AZL. It was by far the most popular. We have finally run out of Union Pacific GP7s, and thus time to retire the set and introduce a replacement. This time, we are featuring AZL's Union Pacific RS2 diesel, with three Union Pacific freight cars. The set contains: AZL UP RS2 AZL PS2-cd covered hopper AZL ACF 2-bay covered hopper AZL PFE reefer Rokuhan RC02 controller Rokuhan R028 track oval Rokuhan A002 railing ramp Check out the starter set page of Ztrack Center for other sets we offer. ztrackcenter.com/starter-sets

Thanks Sven! We are waiting for the first shipments to arrive. When they do, we will audit and validate all items. Then these will be posted on Ztrack Resale (www.ztrackresale.com). Yes, it will be first come first served!

We still have plenty of GP38s available in the following roads:
L&N MP KCS Frisco MKT
We also have plans to bring back the Grand Trunk, CP and SP (speed lettering).
For the GP7/9s, we sold ALOT of these during our Friday specials. We still have available in very limited quantities:
PRR Nickle Plate C&O Sante Fe WP NYC Burlington
If you are interested in any of the GP7/9s, I would jump on them. We are down to 1 or 2 of these.

I used a metal ruler and a very fine Sharpie. They make pens with extremely small tips. It was quick and easy!
Check out the current issue of Ztrack Magazine. I have more information on how I built this module.

If you need it by next weekend, you definitely either want to go with us, or one of the US dealers you mentioned. We are actually the wholesale distributor for Rokuhan in North America and supply the US dealers mentioned. So either way, it is ultimately coming from us. We did just get a new shipment in from Rokuhan and are sending out dealer orders this upcoming week. What kind of flex track are you looking for? Atlas is back ordered until 3rd QTR of this year (and we are out of stock). BTW.. for those who want to purchase overseas, if you have problems, even though we are the US representative, we wont' support these products. We only support products purchased through us, and our authorized dealer network. Just something to keep in mind. Rob www.ztrackcenter.com

Oh no no no... don't use a different adapter. The A028 is specifically designed for use with the RC03. Any other adapter can easily damage the controller, and even the trains. Before we go down a rabbit hole of voltage and amps, I would recommend ONLY using products specifically made for Z scale, especially if you are a newbie. Use of non-Z rated products also will void both Rokuhan's and AZL's warranties. So please don't take the risk!!
As for the A028, if you are in the US they are readily available. I should know, I am the distributor for Rokuhan and we have had stocks of these for many, many months. If your dealer is authorized, they can easily order one from us.

I would recommend contacting your dealer and letting them know your interest in these runs. Prior to this run, we encouraged dealers to place standing orders for these items, specifically the heritage locos. These allotments are accounted for first. What is remaining is released to the public. BTW, the Spirit of UP run has been distributed world wide, including Canada, Germany and South Africa. AZL has quite the following. Rob
