The layout I'm planning will need more that one transformer...no problem...I have 3 old ZW's. Would it be better to divide the layout into 3 power districts and place each transformer close to that district rather than group the ZW's and run wiring to one central control panel? The idea is to avoid voltage drop as much as possible at distant locations on the layout. Most times I'll be operating under Legacy or DCS, with conventional engines powered by the variable outputs on the TIU. Does this method of powering have any benefits or drawbacks?
