Well, there were a lot of sets in the 1970's that had those 10x20 green (1 brick thick) baseplates with the tubes around the bottom inside edge. Several sets come to mind immediately - 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 148, 149. Back in (...) (27 years ago, 23-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

FWIW: I have two LEGO train transformers that are labeled for an output of 12 VAC and two that are labeled for an output of 11 VAC. Both rate the power output at 7 VA. One of my speed controllers is labeled for an input of 9-11 VAC, and three for an (...) (27 years ago, 23-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)
