The 2nd power pack is throwing dc voltage now.  WOW!  I must have checked 80 times before and now its working.  Weird . . .I do own a house where a model train junkie lived (I found a whole bunch of trains that I gave back to the family when we bought).  Maybe he is helping me out some how beyond the grave. :O) (Spooky!)

Power pack NOW registering 1 amp too.  Track getting power, train is still a no go :O(

BOOM! Train ah-movin'!  Thanks everyone.  If only I could take a selfie of how excited I am.  :O)

This is all very weird, but I am glad that the pack is working!

Just out of curiosity, what level DC voltage do you get from the DC terminals on the pack at full blast?

Me too!  I was determined.

Forgot the actual number for voltage, I think it was 16v or something like that.  Also, maybe the decimal is off because my multimeter auto ranges.

That's good.  That is just what you want.

Have fun!
