Does the instruction manual say that this is an autotransformer or isolation transformer? I need to know for sure.

It only says "Heavy Duty Voltage Transformer Converter, Hardwired Heavy Duty Insulated Power Cord with USA Grounded 3-Prong Plug"

Sounds like there is something not working properly on your transformer. Transformer should click on and off automatically.

No transformer is necessary as the unit uses two 1.5 volt batteries. The bottom of the unit pops off and the batteries can then be replaced.

This unit only vibrates. I haven't used the home converter (transformer), but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work just the same.

I really don't know. I use just the regular transformer and it works fine. You might want to try the Lionel site. Good luck!

I don't know about any transformer, all I know is I installed it right out of the box and it worked.

No it is not a transformer. But one of the globes broke during installation. They said they are replacing...

Mine looks the same and has product information on the plug itself that lists it as a "class 2 transformer."

You don't need a transformer! You can just plug it in as it is and works great!

mine is the 120 Volt version and if you do have this one then yes you need to get a transformer.

It means that the transformer is built in the unit. The unit will use a 10 volt DC signal to control (turn on and off) the 120 volt line coming from the unit.

Hi Michael, I don't know anything about power transformers, all I know is, I plugged it in and it works. I live in the U.S, so it works here.

Not really, I do not use this type of transformer, just use it to charge and run an I-pad or I-phone, sorry!

it's just a transformer. what you use the transformed voltage for is irrelevant.

It is a plug in transformer that steps voltage down to approx. 5 volts I think. I wouldn't recommend this product as the one I purchased quit working soon after I started using it, it is poor quality.

Wyobuyer. It dose NOT provide separate/isolated windings. The two windings are connected. Hope this helps.
