Are there any issues with phasing these two transformers? The main loops on my layout are powered by a KW. I want to add a trolley line powered by a Z1000 that crosses the main line.

If it crosses the main and does not in any other way interact with it, electrically, there is no need to phase them. Phasing is a method to create a common return for two or more separate, (similar or dissimilar) electrical sources.
That said, because it's so easy to do, go ahead and phase them. Unless there's something about the output of a Z1000 that would not like it. Since I wouldn't know a Z1000 from a Volkswagen, I can't tell you if that's a possibility.
Thanks for the reply. I will try it and see what happens.
