@Brooklyn Corey I did a quick search on Digi-Key for the Airpax snapac style instant breakers and didn't see that style listed.  If these are what you're interested in having, I'd be happy to help you pick out what's right for your set-up, and try not to make your head hurt.   If you could answer these 4 questions, we can figure this out.

1) I have the 275 Watt post war ZW (the old style without external bricks).  Which one do you have?

2) How many Locos you plan to run at once (to figure the breaker Amperage rating)?

3) How many independently wired track loops, if more than one loop (to know how many breakers).

4) Do you plan to run all MTH DCS, or would it be a mix of Lion Chief, Conventional, and/or Legacy.

Cool I appreciate I believe my ZW is the same as yours( see pic) I will be running one train at a time on one track. Maybe 2 if I’m feeling lucky. I have 2 different track loops. One DCS and the other conventional. I do have a Lionchief that I’ll run also.
