Reply to "Lionel 6-32930 and TMCC"

I don't have any personal experience with the ZWC, so I can't speak to it's viability in your situation.  I've read in the past here on the forum that some really like it and other's have had issues with them, but I don't recall all the details.  If I'm remembering correctly, one of it's issues is that it doesn't produce a pure sine wave output.  MY EDIT: removed potentially misleading info.

If you do a G**gle search for "OGR forum ZW C" you should be able to learn more about it.  I also like the look of the ZW type and I have 2 postwar ZWs (pure sine wave) that I really like, but they need external breakers for safer operation.  Unless you buy a product that already has really fast breakers, external protection is recommended for Locos with modern electronics.

IMO, if you have to also buy a power brick, which may or may not be available to you, then there may be better options if you wait.
