Hi everyone,

My son has a backman EZ-Track system Ho scale. Originally he had the Thomas the Tank Engine set (simple loop track), then we added 4 sets of points and a pile of other track pieces so we could do a sort of figure 8, and all was good.

Now we have with thanks to Santa a turntable. The piece of paper that comes with the turntable says separate power supplies should be used for the track and turntable, but of course we have only one.

Is it possible to piggy-back both power cables into the one power unit, Or do I have to import another power supply unit?

Currently we can have either working if we swap which cable is plugged in. But there is an intermittant (70% chance or so) chance that once we unplug the turntable and plug the tracks back in we then have no power to the tracks at all.

Please bear in mind I am a complete noobie at this and small words are good

Cheers
GC
