Frantzy, <br /> <br />DO NOT USE A LIONEL or any other O-scale power pack for an HO set. Lionel is AC and HO scale is DC unless you are running Marklain(sp?), the German stuff. It would be alright to use D-cell batteries if you just want to see it run, but you will probably use them up fast. Somewhere between 9-12 volts should get it to run. Incidently, I recommend getting a power pack from MRC (Model Rectifier Corp) for about $60. It may sound expensive but I love mine. <br /> <br />Good Luck - Ed
