[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by nfmisso</i> <br /><br />The problem is that a trainset power packr typically has a variable resistor in series with the transformer for controlling the speed. This works fine with a locomotive matched to the pack. A locomotive with a motor that has less resistance than intended will not start until a higher throttle setting, one that has more resistance will start at almost full speed. <br /> <br />The solution is a transitor power pack (my favorite is MRC Tech II 2500). Any of the MRC Tech II, Tech 3 or Tech 4 pack will do fine. <br />[/quote] I've got a question. How do you hook up a Tech 4 to EZ or True Trak?
