To Troy the Pom; You have come to the right place to talk about the LGB MTS; I have just such a system and I had had nothing but trouble with it. In five months I have only had it working to its full potential about two weeks total. Main trouble has been the points operating system Having said that, I do not entirely blame the equipment itselfy, the intructions are un understanable, really they are, I defy you to understand them. But the real troube is the local importer and for fear of liable I will not go into detail but to say i have no confidence in them would be a reasonable statement and I am basically an easygoing person. However I believe that in the long run MTS it is the ONLY WAY to go and if you are going to go that way, make up your mind early, as it is cheaper and more efficaceous that way. Your concern regarding power supplies is not what it should be. If you go to MTS you should be aware that the power that is reticulated is AC not DC, so all your Locos would have to have decoders put in them prior. I have been to just the point you are at, about a year ago, at that time I had to have two of those power supplies to run my big Mallet loco and its illuminated carrigaes. But if you do get a 6 Amp transformer you still won't be able to operate your trains, you will need a central station and an MTS controller. So either you jump or you don't, no halfways. Like if you get shipped to the Colonies for stealing a loaf of bread, you can't get off at Singapore and go back to the Old Dart, if you cahnge your mind. My wife was born at Wolverhampton, which I think is a fair way from you by your standards but by Aussie standards, anywhere in England is close to every where else. All the best Regrards Ian the Aussie Grandad (11) Kawana Island tropical Railway, Sunshine Coast; Queensland.
