Here's a reply I got from the good people at MRC concerning the use of an MRCTech4 200 or 220 with a Hornby; ==================================== ALL OF OUR DC POWER PACKS WILL RUN THE SET FINE...YOU HAVE TO WATCH YOUR VOLTAGE LEVELS THOUGH BECAUSE ALL OF THE VARIABLE OUTPUTS EXCEED 12 VOLTS THE ONLY PACK WE MAKE WITH 16 VOLTS AC FOR ACCESSORIES IS THE CONTROL MASTER 20 #AA444 ==================================== Once you get everything hooked up, you'll probably want to put a volt meter on the tracks and mark on you controller where, between stop and full, you hit the magical 12V mark. Then, don't crank the throtle open beyond that spot or you could let all the magical black smoke out of the engine.
