A Day Without Trains is a Day Wasted

Modeling the Baltimore waterfront in HO scale
QUOTE: Originally posted by prewardude One important thing to consider here: The Z4000 uses a pure sine-wave signal (as does the MRC Pure Power), the new ZW uses a modified waveform, from what I understand; THAT'S why people are having problems with spurious bell-ringing, etc., with the new ZW. Personally, I would never use a transformer that doesn't use a pure sine-wave. One of these days, Lionel is going to learn this lesson, I hope. [:(!] So go with The MRC Pure Power or the MTH Z4000.

QUOTE: Originally posted by willpick Don't overlook the new MRC Pure Power Dual transformer! It has the Volt & amp meters(analog instead of digital), and each side has 135 Watts output. The Z4K has more watts(180 per side), but is also a bit more money.
