Ok, so here is what I have. Took the locomotive and the transformer to the local train shop. Guy there tested them. I saw the engine running in his hand off both his tester and my transformer. Transformer tested good at the store, but I bring it home, set it all back up, check my track connections, and nothing.
I pull out the volt meter and check for power at the tracks and I'm getting about .05v at the tracks. This is at the clip, not the rails. I figure at the "full speed" setting I should see at least 5v available at the clip.
I'm stumped.
