@JackO posted:Steve,
Thanks for all your help and this post. My circa 2017 or 18 LC Polar Express wall wart has a lot of power — DC as I’ve recently learned.
It successfully runs the LC PE steam engine, LC+ NW2 switcher, 5 lighted PE cars, 2 VL freightsound cars, uncoupling track, 5 lighted buildings, and 4 remote/command switches all at once. And does it without a hitch — except for the AC requirements of the VL freight cars.Surprisingly even holding the uncoupler track activation for 5+ seconds didn’t slow down the train on the main line.
Still, a lot to learn and the more experienced here willing to share are saving me from a lot of frustration. Thank you.
JackO, you're welcome. I'm glad you found this information helpful.
To further help others with this topic by way of transformer comparison, would you please consider posting the Current Output rating in mA (or Amps) of your wall transformer and also the set number it came with (ie. :6-xxxxx) ?
