Mine showed up... anyone look at lowering these onto the trucks further yet? There's a surprising amount of space between the side frames and the body, especially given the frame rails are modeled.

Fresh from the shops, BNSF 6430 makes its first trip out West, still clean and shiny. With minor modifications, she can maneuver through the tight 145mm curves of Donner Pass with ease. Thanks AZL! These ES44AC's are GREAT!!! Bill Mock   |

How is the forward and ditch lighting luminance ? Visible in average room light now or do I have to wait until August 21 @ 10:21 ?

They're as good as my SD45's. So don't wait until even a partial eclipse. They're good to go even in the bright California sunlight. |

And, same after the AZL4 or DZ123ZO decoder is put in  The LEDs are just as bright an a millimeter or so farther away, so chance for dimmer. But it they are as good as you say, then there is hope. I have to wait for 3 of the UP's. Have extra track space in my Engine Yard but will end up as triplets hauling 50 car trains. |

Where's the fun of trying to balance the power from the helpers? Rob would love to sell you a few more units. |

Thank you!
That definitely looks like the right product, however I can’t seem to find a price? Some items, like the light strips are priced, but not the Z scale cases… I wonder if they are still in business or just out of stock?

The N/Z case is one and the same. The case Mike Skibbe has is the N case.
