I'm running Bachmann N-scale single track.

The reason I'm starting so big is that I've finally decided to incorporate a train set into my Christmas Vilage which.....after 20-something years is over 250 homes.

So......I've already bought the tracks....but have no transformer or trains yet.....lol. Figured buying the trains will be the fun, easy part.

Anyhow, any ideas or advice on the power I'll need would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

John

I'm starting my first setup and I'm trying to find one answer at a time so I don't get overwhelmed...lol. My layout will be 90 feet of straight track (plus curves).

Can anyone give me a rough idea on what specs I should look for in a transformer so I dont get it home only to find it isn't strong enough.

Options like remote control......etc.......aren't important at this stage. I just want to have this up and running this year and leave upgrades to next year.

Thank you very much,

John
