QUOTE: Originally posted by Overdurff I think that there is some trade off in gauge and number of feeders and amps required to run a number of locomotives or lighted cars. If 20/22 ga wire only carry 5 amps there are likely several feeders carrying this load to a usually large length of track (another feeder) . With modern low current motors in N and HO I would only shy away from 24 ga. solid telephone wire as feeders.
