I think @Dave Olson is your best source to find answers. I know Dave has mentioned the new CW-80 before on the forum I do t remember what thread I’d have to go searching but I do remember some.

from what I recall it is very close to the new PH180 power supply so it will no longer need the cheep fan that makes a lot of noise. And it will also be UL approved (if I recall correctly) so I’m sure there a LOT of little things we might never think is necessary that UL will require

Zachariah, Thanks for the tip.

Going back to Jan 2020, the only mention of Lionel transformer details by @Dave Olson I found on OGR was in the discussion of the third pin safety in the Molex connector of the new PH180 which UL requires (for a load to be connected before turning power on AC Voltage at the output).  It stands to reason that the new CW80 (no hyphen) would have the same UL requirements:

Are there any other Improvements to the new CW80?
