And then a spur going off up there to your train shed so you don't have to pick the trains up to put them away! Just drive them right on into the shed to the storage yard under the O scale layout[}:)][}:)][:D]

Jon,
See, ya put another row of bricks around the one you have now. Build an outer loop with a cross over. Then you can run two trains at the same time. Yeap,, looks like your gonna need that 10 amper.

You say that you will be running only one unit,
now
Never can tell what the future will hold. My intent was to only have two units on the track with one parked at all times, well that only lasted a year, fortunately for me that year was while I was testing track paterns on the back patio. The larger power supply will give a lot more "wiggle room" later as you change you mind. (Or rather, As you improve the layout)

Finally, the loop is level and all the track joined!!! What an effort!!!
For my power supply I'm looking at 2 models by Bridgewerks. The 5 amp or the 10 amp. There is a hundred dollar differance between the two. I will only be running one engine at a time, so could you please help me figure out which one would be better? Thanks, Jon (click on pix to enlarge)
