    some more marx you havn't seen yet :-)

    i have a mix of new lionel track alongside of the older marx tracks the marx should run with lionel transformers.. when you get the larger engines out with a line of cars on them, you might run into some lack of power issues since the basic lionel transformer doesn't quite give enough...

    Ebay - Glory Days Gone?

    i've just got into it this year, so far it's been nice for me... marx trains last forever, all you have to do is occasionally lube and clean them... i've also got some really good deals on there, but it still prefer buying them inperson so i can inspect and see them run before handing over money

    Lionel Transformer

    the lionel transformer i'm having problems with is the brand new one, not the old one.... i have not the slightest clue of what the engines draw... the older lionel transformer is actually on my main outside track, and it runs rather well... all the trains run exceptionally fine on both of...

    Lionel Transformer

    i'm not sure what it is, but i think the bigger transformer of mine, which you can see on the bottom right of that picture i posted, is like 90watt, power output is adjustable by what terminals you hook the wires up to
