Lionel's ZW-L transformer

I did a search on line a shop called Red Rocket Hobby and they a ZWL for a bit over $700 free shipping

Harry

Check here.  It's in the Power and Track Catalog  

4 independently controlled channels via either your Cab/Legacy system or handles/sliders. 

Paul: Perhaps you didn't look in the correct catalog......you will find the ZW-L for sale on page 48 of the "2016-2017 Track and Power" catalog by Lionel.

Do a search on this forum there was a discussion on the ZW-L not to long ago.  From someone who ownes one it is an awesome transformer!  

The ZW-L is a great product.  It is the best Lionel has ever produced.

Paul,

Marty's correct. I bought a MTH Z4000, and then, as things grew, I bit the bullet and bought the ZWL. No regrets at all. It's a work of techno-art and as reliable as a golden retriever.

As on it's granddaddy, the old ZW, the two inner handles are short and stubby. When you grasp one, the meters switch to read output on that channel, i.e., from A to B, or D to C.

Thanks everyone, and thanks for the link, Marty.

It looks like it has two throttle - variable control similar to old ZW and Z-4000 and then two "dial-type" controls for accessories. Does anyone know where the dials are on the unit. Very difficult to tell from photo.

If I used the ZW-L and Z-4000 on the layout (6 mainlines all connected via switch crossovers) with all tracks having a common ground would that pose any problems with the type of pure vs. chopped sine waves, i.e., a train on track 4 powered by ZW-L crossing over into track 5 powered by Z-4000?

Anyone have the dimensions including height of this puppy?

I am not a marketing or sales person - but it seems to me people would miss this item entirely because its not in the main catalog. If I ever  heard about a power catalog I forgot about it.

Paul. Next time I'm down the train room I'll take some measurements.  This is not your daddy's ZW.    IT's "BIG"
