we are newbies - running 3-rail O
we are happily in our 2nd childhoods ... bought an MTH locomotive and passenger set ... then bought a Lionel locomotive and passenger set ... the first freight set won't be far behind.
we have plenty of room to work with and want to know if we can (or should) use the MTH and Lionel transformers in series on the same track. We have 150 watt and 80 watts respectively with the MTH and Lionel. If so, what do we need to do to make it safe for the trains (don't want to fry anything). Or, should we just use the separate transformers on completely separate track within the layout?
also - are all 3-rail Lionel and MTH track run on AC?
thanks,
Glenn&Kathy
