By: Kentiki Date: December 8, 2017, 10:49 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Hi everyone, Is it possible to use a Lionel O 6-22983 180 Watt Power House with a Lionchief train? I have the Hogwarts express that I want to run on about 48 feet of track. The layout is one loop with a single siding (manual switch). I use the wall power pack the set came with, but with all the lighted coaches attached, nothing at all runs. Only the engine and tender alone will run. Is the Lionel 180 Watt Power House designed for stand alone use or does it plug into a transformer? I'm not sure how it attaches to the track. Could I run it to a bus and then send power to the tracks in say, 4 places for even distribution? Or is it sufficient to buy a CW-80 and run that to the bus with feeders around the track? Thanks so much! [attachment deleted by admin] *****************************************************
