NO! Do not use that transformer. The transformer converts AC to DC, in Europe you would probably get 24 volts DC out of it, but here in America you would probably get 18 volts DC. It might be good enough, but I would rather get an American transformer, 120 volts @ 60 hz to get the needed 24 volts DC and current. If the transformer had said 50-60 hz, then it would be okay, but since it didn't, it probably won't run well. <br /> <br />The train itself will more than likely run nicely with an American transformer.
