I am going to go post by post above and try the suggestions tonight ( no work). I was told these transformers ARE hard to get but you guys would know more than the guy who said they were hard to get. How much are the transformers for these sets? I'm in this now and WILL get it fixed , with your help. Thanks everyone. Now I have a Glenn Miller Orchestra concert to go to at 7:30 so I will post on here tonight what I find out when I get home.
