Changing to HOn3

I mentioned on Feb. 7th that I am taking down my N Scale layout and stocking up on Peco code 70 etc.  I have purchased 60 lengths of flex in bulk and some Peco U1551 and U1552 turnouts and watching for more.
My question is that finding Unifrog number 5 code 70 has been interesting.  I have 5 right and 5 Left either coming or in stock at this point.  My old N was all Peco and never had a problem buying it 13 years ago but has something happened with Peco for HOn3 Product,  mainly their Unifrog turnouts. That is becoming interesting?  DR    :)    :o

I don’t think PECO produces the same volume of HOn3 track as they do other gauges, simply because the demand for HOn3 track is lower than N gauge or etc. Getting HOn3 track isn’t impossible, but requires some patience.

Micro Engineering might be a better source for HOn3 track these days. I believe they're back in production
