No, they were

No, they were listed as 3 Right and 2 Left.

I had some previously so now I think have 5 or 6 of each.

When you placed this last order it had 3 Right and 2 Left as the max order, Right?  You could not order 3 Left because it only show 2 available. 

This time it shows 3 Right and 3 Left.

 

I did the same thing. I got 3R and 2L if I want the other left now I have to pay shipping for a single switch which is + $20. Then conversion

fee again its not worth it.

Looks like another run of unitram track will be coming next Feb/ March.  Even including the new E series pieces.

All back for pre-order at your favourite vendors.

You are presuming that there is a U.S. distribution. I'm not as convinced. A search on the katousa website for "Unitram" results only in a non-updated product listing that still shows the old V51-V54 sets and so on. A similar search for "Unitram" on the katousa's "store" website only brings up the 4 colors of My Tram Classic trams.

 

I sure hope they prove me wrong...

Looks likes the U.S. distribution occurred like I predicted. I missed my order notification a little after katoftw posted.

 

So we see its a 2 month interval.

So hopefully you were able to get what you wanted. Did you get them directly from KatoUSA? I do not see them listed in KatoUSA's  online store, and their general Unitram info page shows only the older 40-210 and 40-211 Unitram turnouts, and not the newer 40-212 and 40-213 numbers.

I got on the "back order" list after I posted a few months ago. That's how I knew they were coming.

The Tram product line is a strange one. It looks like it made its way into the Catalog. Hopefully

its an indication of a better production cycle.

There is two series of Unitram now. The regular with road markings and the E series without road markings.
