For Christmas this year I just got the Pennsylvania Flyer LionChief and a CW-80. Consequently I will have 3 power supplies: two wall packs and the CW-80. I am also thinking of combining the track from the two sets by maybe purchasing some more manual switches. My questions are: 1) I had thought that the CW-80 would supply enough power for both trains, but I see a reference on the official blog that I might need more power if running two trains. So I'm in a dilemma trying to figure out what I'll need to set this all up. Assembly of both sets happens Christmas eve at a different location so I can't test things out beforehand. 1a) Will the CW-80 Power both trains? 1b) If not, any way to use the two wall power packs I'll have? 1c) If not 1a or 1b would I need to purchase the 180 powerhouse (6-22983)? 1d) if 1c, will this connect via the wall pack track connector, the CW-80 track connector (which I ordered), or does it use something else? 2. I aw elsewhere a reference to the iCab app. It evidently for Legacy and TMCC systems. Will it work with LionChief? *****************************************************
