I want to run my TIU using an external power supply. I cannot find one that I believe would work. I'm confused I believe that I need a transformer that supplies power at 12 to 22 volts and 1.5AMPS. Can someone provide me with a source for this transformer.

eBay: 183593893515, 12V 3A for $4.25
Would this also work? Ebay: 202308540596
Yep, looks to have the same specs.
Thought this be a good option since shipping is free & the item is located in the US.
An MTH TIU? Not just a AIU but a TIU??
That wall wart is suitable to power the trains?
As opposed to a Z-1000 or Z-4000 input ?
As oppose to a Lionel 180 brick input?
I must gotta be missing something.......
Old World DC RRer here.
I believe it's just for powering the TIU. The track is a different story. I'm sure that must all be explained in Barry's book, & a must have purchase. I think my book is about 10 years old. I need to get the latest version.

We like to run very small trains Tom. 
Sounds like the "Barry Book" is my next purchase. Barry, I do believe you must be one of the more patient souls on this forum in the manner that you field some very elementary questions. Thank you.
Tom,

It's nice of you to say so.
