<p>Maybe I'm weird having been around huge power supplies but I have three, count 'em 3, MRC 6200 power supplies and am very happy. Each one will run 2 LGB moguls or 2 Bachmann Annies. Often the Stainz is running at the same time.</p><p>Of course, it's in-doors only operations, but with over 10 boxes of track (12 sections in each, about a foot each), I'm not hurting for power and I have block capability without spending a fortune, the track was bad enough!</p><p>Where does all that extra power go and why is it needed? Maybe I should go out and buy a few power hogs, but 6 engines seems plenty for an indoor setup. Yep, I also have a Hartland American, too, but the pony truck doesn't always want to stay on the track and that's dicey enough with a 2 amp power supply! I'd need more fire extinguishers if it was powered by 10 amp welding supply.</p><p>Art </p>
