Ed made a really good point about the transformer. Stay away from the type that come with train sets. A Rail Power 1300 is a very simple transformer that with run several engines on a 4 x 8 layout with no problems for about $30.00. MRC ina very good brand. The most common thing that everyone has said is to spend the little extra and get quality stuff. The cheep stuff just doesn't stand up or compare. Your local hobby shop is always a good place to start. Yes, you may pay a little more there, but the info they give you is usually worth its weight in gold if they are any good.......Jamie
