This transformer has been refurbished and updated to better than when it was new in 1947! It looks brand new, controls the speed of my Lionel steam engine much better now and the coal tender whistle is now much louder with the new diode control installed. I am very happy that I paid just little bit more for this "better than new" transformer than a used one which may be well worn out like my old one. I highly recommend purchasing a refurbished, updated transformer from this supplier! You will not be disappointed!

Good transformer, but whistle lever is touchy and wobbly on one. I have 2 others that work as new. Great all around transformer for most all Lionel train sets if you can find one that hasn't been used much with tight levers.

Is in good shape. Very clean. Operational, after installing a needed new electrical cord. A little easy work gained a very good deal.

Works great, and eventhough it is a vintage product, works like a newly made one.

I'm a starter on model trains. Rather than one large four train transformer I wanted four smaller ones. This allows visitors and my wife to take part in controlling a train. When I was a child my neighbor had several trains on a platform. He had the big four train transformer. All I ever did was watch. It would have been more fun for me to have control of one of them with a smaller transformer. The one I'm doing the review on has a whistle control also. That is a neat feature.
