That TTX 111 is unusual, how many were there of that?

I think there were two of the TTX, and very few of the BNSF's as well. Still some BN and ATSF out in the wild for sure...they look a little rough though.
Not a complaint at all...but for the MKT modelers an MKT caboose would be cool eventually. Since you have the basis for a very complete MKT roster from the 70's until around 1990, it would be a fairly easy railroad to model in Z.

And no NYC or NH (if ever they used this version in the 60's ? )

If only the ATSF ones had the cupolas centered... almost every scale does this with their CE6-11s. so far only Athearn has done proper Ce11s. It's fine I understand the costs to move that is expensive. I'll probably still buy one though.

It's fine I understand the costs to move that is expensive. I'll probably still buy one though. Yeah, I feel your pain on that one. But yes that one mod means that's practically a new entire model. I think there is a Z version of the ATSF Ce11 on Shapeways. Not sure how it compares to an AZL with compromises though....the nice decoration is sure great to have. Honestly I'm way post-caboose for the most part, but there were (still are) both BN and ATSF EV's in play for locals as "shoving platforms". So I have one BN, and probably would have had one Santa Fe if I found one that wasn't astronomical in price. But given that I'm not modeling any BN switching anymore, I've even put my BN up for sale. I'll likely hang on to it, but still...not probably gonna spring for the ATSF. Also nice to see the D&RGW one to accompany the tunnel motors.

Thank you for the ONR and CP Versions. I would love to see an ONR loco, most of which AZL has tooling for. Hint, hint.

Just thought about that faux UP version at the bottom, that'd be a perfect repaint for Chehalis Western! They had a couple for they're log trains they bought brand new. Hmmm....

I'd like to see one for Lehigh Valley, of course, theirs had center cupolas. They had wide vision cabooses in green, red and bicentennial.

Echo eltiti1 sentiments. No Conrail? No NYC?, No NH? Really?
BNSF with swish logo? They were not even using cabooses by that scheme. Oh well, my two cents.
