I currently have a 16x20 legacy only fastrack layout that is run by a 180w Lionel brick. My layout is growing (1 loop will be conventional) and I’d like to know if I can run Lionel Legacy using a ZW 275w transformer. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank You

You can, but you should probably replace the circuit breaker in it with something modern and fast acting, or wire it through a PowerMaster.
Also, don’t exceed 18 volts on the track, and use a meter to confirm the voltage.
Everything in the transformer has been updated as recommended by forum members. I didn’t think about the Powermaster. Thank you.
