If your having areas of track where your engine slows down theres a couple things you can do. First check the wiring to the track to make sure it's properly connected to the power pack. If your doing dc make sure your switch soldiers or connections are good. <br />Then make sure your rail connections are good. Solder any joints together for smoothest running and the best electical connection(those rail connectors just don't seem to cut it) <br />Lastly run feeder wires in between connection points on tthe rails. This will help keep your electrical connections uniform over your layout. <br />If you have a newer powerpack then your should be fine with that. The only reason your might need more power is if you have a big layout or want to run more than 3-4 locos at a time.
