TRANSFORMERS INFO.

TRANSFORMERS INFO.

We carry a limited number of choices in new transformers, because most available units are not suitable for the power needs of the larger scales (S, O, and G scales). We have experience with the following units, but they are not all easy to keep in stock, so it is wise to inquire before you order.  In addition, you will find original used American Flyer and Lionel transformers on the "TRANSFORMERS " Sales Category inventory.
