Thanks again Larry. You've been really kind. I think I'll take your advice and get a "ZW" transformer, as I have 3 full trains and 4 engines, so could easily implement 4 train sets. Today, I just have 3 train ovals going around my x-mas tree, as that is really the extent of my annual train usage. Unfortunately, I have 3 transformers, so I think I should try to reduce that complexity particularly if one ZW can replace them. Enjoy your holiday, and hope you and your family have a magical New Year.
