I am planning to build a small N Scale layout of 3"by 7". I'm new to MRR'ing. What's a good starter DC Power Pack that is not overly expnsive. I have chose to use Kato Unitrack. Any suggestions?
I only have enough room for 1 layout.Originally posted by porkypine52
get your first layout running, so that you can get the feel for MODEL RAILROADING.
I have been looking at power packs & may buy a couple of the tech4 200 packs. I found them for $40 on 4nscale.com. And I already have the turnout power supply at hand, that being a Bachmann toy pack that they want in that big giant reference book for $25.Originally posted by porkypine52
As shaygetz says, go get a MRC TECH power pack. Best for starting out. Remember you get what you pay for. Spend a little extra and get a good power pack. Do one other thing, get a cheap power pack, from a toy train set, to power your turnouts from. That way you can throw your turnouts without draining power from your track
be sure and use AC for powering turnouts, lights, etc. You're ok though, with a toy train transformer.Originally posted by rcwatkins
