A Gathering Of ZedHeads

The weekend of April 30th, 2010 was truly a special few days here in the United States. Z scalers (aka Zedheads) from around the US and four countries descended on Medford, Oregon for the National Z Scale Convention. One of the strengths of our hobby is the united community that we Z scalers share.

As the doors opened, Z scalers were quick to greet each other and rekindle old relationships. Some would meet a dear friend for the first time as they had only known each other from email and forum entries. It is in this type of environment that I feel a sense of belonging and realize that I have chosen the right hobby...

AZL / SZL trains

American Z Line

AZL logoAmerican Z Line is the industry leader in Z scale locomotive motive power for the North American market. AZL's releases of brass and injection molded locomotives feature an 8mm Faulbauber motor, dual flywheels and directional lighting. AZL locomotives and rolling stock have set the standard for detail and performance. From steam to modern diesels, AZL continues to expand their line and excite the Z scale community.
Swiss Z Line

SZL logoSwiss Z Line was founded with the goal to meet the niche market of Swiss Z scale locomotives and rolling stock. SZL's first release of the brass Re 4/4 IIs immediately filled a long standing need in modern Swiss locomotive power. Corresponding brass passenger cars and gravel cars offered Swiss enthusiasts all new options for rolling stock. SZL's goal is to expand the line to include locomotives and rolling stocks for other European markets.
