Reply to "Do I have enough power with just a 180w from Lionel for this layout? 16x8 layout"

How many power connections do you have now? I’m no expert on power, but I would think a single 180 would have enough power to run a train on each loop. I’d have 2 power connections on each loop, potentially another on the inner crossover and 1 on each spur connected to a switch so power could be turned off if you store engines on them. I’d be interested to know if the shorts are in the same area each time.

As far as how I’m doing, we just returned from 10 days at Cape Canaveral FL and a couple days at our daughters in Gainesville GA. We’ll be heading back to GA for a college graduation, some final baseball games and some time on Lake Lanier. We hit a blizzard coming home Thursday and almost didn’t make it through before they closed the freeway. It was slow going, but we made it safe and sound. Our Prius did quite well for its first time in such conditions.
