Good for Outdoor trains, not weather proof, not for HUGE trains.
This was the 2.2 amp version that AristoCraft bundled with their starter sets for several years. Later they made a 3.5 amp version which was better. I used one like this on am outdoor loop railroad that was about 75 feet long. I didn't need jumpers to power anything I put on the track, but it's worth noting that I also used AristoCraft track, which makes a better connection than LGB track over long runs or years of service.
AristoCraft power supplies are one thing I started stockpiling when they went out of business. I was glad to pick up another one - even a used one - for about what they cost new back in the day.
