Some have suggested a Z-1000, but might just go with another Lionel 80w.
We are also using standard 036 curves. Will this be an issue to run a Hudson 4-6-4 or similiar?
I have a small layout (6x9) and run two CW80s (Both G code versions) and like them very well.
I also run my PW 665 Hudson and 736 Berkshire on O36 Fastrack with no problems.
