Hi All, I'm new to this site so apologies if this has been asked before or is in the wrong section.

My Farther has an analog track layout in his garden and would like to upgrade it to DCC, we have installed the central station and got all the standard equipment working like switches, feedback, loco decoders etc however we are now looking at the 55063 breaking module to get trains to stop at the station.

This is not a module we had on the analog setup so we have never used it before. I have read all of the manuals and online discussions I can but need some help.

So far we have the 55063 Module, 17100 magnetic contacts, 51950 signal, 55090 Booster and a separate 50110 transformer. As I understand it the module is split into two separate controllers but I can't seem to get an answer on the question of whether a single transformer and booster can supply both sides of the module?

Any help would be fantastic
 
Brilliant thanks, Another question... What effect would two different 50110 transformers have on the system? I have two 50110 transformers but I have just noticed that one is 120VA 20v and the other is 90VA 18v will this cause issues?
