I have a 10 amp NCE DCC system now with 4 10 amp boosters. The first ones were powered by old fashioned iron core 180W transformers purchased from Tony’s Train Exchange (no longer offered). For the newest booster install I purchased a second hand Lionel 180W "brick" on eBay at a very nice price - works great. Whatever DCC system you go for I would strongly encourage you not to rule out installing your own decoders later on as you gain experience - it is not hard at all. Limiting your roster to only those locomotives with factory installed decoders unnecessarily narrows your field of play and in many cases comes at added cost.
