Sounds like you are using a Lionel CW-80(Can't Work=CW) as they have all sorts of problems. Most people don't like my suggestion for the CW-80 and that is to cut off the power cord and use it as a paper weight.

SchemerBob, break down and buy the Z1000!!!

Well, actually I am using an older 80-watt transformer/controller. I do have a CW-80 but never really used my switcher on it for long, because of the blasting horn problem, and that I couldn't activate the couplers and other features that require a button sequence. The older 80-watt transformer does everything fine, though. I think I will buy the Z-1000 anyways, whenever I get back to the hobby shop!

Long live the BNSF .... AND its paint scheme. SchemerBob
