Testing the Controller to this here Postwar Lionel 182 Magnetic Crane w/ its existing wires it came with to the all five new ones coming from the upper end. The voltage is set @ 13.34V. Everything seems as it should. Now to install new wires from the controller on the control panel to its place on the layout… What a Fun Toy!
