Hi reader,

Welcome to our second newsletter!

Thank you to everyone who has signed up in the last several weeks! We hope that this will be useful to keep everyone updated with everything we have going on. In our newsletters you'll find news about our upcoming projects, updates on DCC products, and what shows to find us at in the coming months.

Our first ready-to-run model this year, the NSW CDY open wagon and later derivatives - in N scale of course! All of the different versions we are producing can be viewed on our website and are currently available for pre-order at $100 per 2 pack, a discount of $10 per pack. We are expecting delivery in the next couple of months, with production having now begun in the factory.

Did you know we also have a clearance section on our website? We'll be adding more items from time to time, so keep an eye out to grab some great bargains!

ZIMO & ESU Pricing Update

With the tariff situation in the US several customers have raised concerns in regards to pricing. The good news for the foreseeable future is ESU decoders, which we purchase from ESU LLC in the US, will remain at their current prices, subject to the AUD/USD exchange. ESU have begun to shift the manufacture of several key products to the Czech Republic and have committed to no price increases for the time being. We're committed to offering a very competitive price on all ESU products and are very grateful for all of our customers who support us with their purchases!

ZIMO and LaisDcc products thankfully remain unaffected by tariffs, alongside all other products we carry. Our thoughts are with the businesses and their families impacted by the tariff situation in the US.

While reviewing our pricing it came to our attention that ZIMO have increased their prices (circa March 2025). In addition to this, the AUD/EUR exchange has declined in recent months. As a result we have had to increase the price on most ZIMO sound decoders by $15-20. Non-sound decoders remain largely unaffected. Having reviewed prices internationally we believe we are still competitively priced as compared to purchasing and shipping from ZIMO dealers in the UK and continental Europe.

This price increase only applies to new stock, you can still purchase our old stock, including a handful of previous generation MX sound decoders for some very attractive prices. Click the links to the right of this text to explore the range of decoders we have on offer at varying price points!
