Reply to "ZW-L or CW-80 (new) and accessory transformer?"

If you are able to do the cost, I greatly recommend the ZW-L. It is probably more power than you will need, but you are more than likely going to end up adding more things that will require power, and that transformer will take it without fuss. I went the CW route for a while, and ended up needing several, and overwhelming them when I tried to run dual motor engines with passenger cars. Never had that problem with the ZW-L.

The Z-4000 is another option, but not only is MTH going out of business, but they said that they can't get a part for them anymore (last run coming out soon), so they will be obsolete when you buy it. I don't personally have one, but I've heard they are great transformers.
