I actually have a 100 Watt Z500 that I've been using on my Fastrack oval. I think 100 Watts should get me started on this inner loop. I just will need to have some power drops along the track so it doesn't lose speed or stop at the other end.
If you have good track joints, you may not any need drops. Only add them if you get some voltage drops or a train slows down. The Z-500 is a little weak, but you have it, so try it out. it's 48.5 feet of track.

Thanks Carl.

I hope the joints will be good. They will be brand new. I'm buying all the Atlas Track this weekend. That's why I'm trying to configure a "starter" to the full set so I don't have to spend $3000 at once.

Yeah on the Z500 I was looking at the Input. The Output is 18V 54W

I was wondering what you meant by "starting point".
