Thanks to you both.

Hello all. Am new to the board and have decided to make a few upgrades to the 10 year old Lifelike train I run under the Christmas tree. And even make the move (and find the space) for a more permanent layout that my son and I can enjoy.

I have my eye on the Empire Builder Great Northern passenger train set. I note that it comes with powered A and B units. How powerful is the powerpack? I assume it puts our more power than the 7VA lifelike powerpack that I currently have. Assuming I buy this set, will I be able to run a train with a Bachmann RF-16 DCC Shark A and B and 2 pullman cars?

Thanks in advance.
