Hi... I have a KW transformer that I need to check out internally and test the circuit breaker function. Have removed the 4 top screws but can't figure how the handles come off... any help appreciated. Also, can anyone direct me to a site that tells one how to recondition these? I set up my 1954 set and got things working for my 9 and 10 year old last night... the magic in there eyes was worth all the time spent cleaning rails ;) and when a cars wheels shorted the track the wires to the track (thin single conductor ones that came with a clip on power connector just bought new) melted down instantly and just about burned the rug. Spooky... never recall that happening as a kid. So, I am trying to check out this KW before any major meltdowns occur again. Any help appreciated... these kids need this train running by Christmas ;) Thanks for the help. John
