As my layout grows, so does the current demand. I have been using a Lionel "VW" (150W) for track voltage, eight #O22 switches, and six #6019 remote control track sections. I installed TVS on each leg of the transformer plus a 5 amp circuit breaker for track voltage. With this set up I do not trip the circuit breaker in the "VW". I do know that it works. I run my accessory lights with a CW-80. I suspect I'm reaching the limit of my "VW". I also have a Type "S" transformer available. Should I move the switches or control track to the Type "S"? I'm aware of the need to keep transformers in phase. Which one should I move? I have a second 5 amp circuit breaker installed but unused on my control panel. I run conventional and LC+ locomotives.
As always, thank you for sharing your wisdom.
