Changes A.C. to D.C. through specially designed electronic tube. Operates Electronic Propulsion or standard locomotives. One unit may be used to operate one Electronic Propulsion locomotive and one standard locomotive on the same or different tracks or two Electronic Propulsion locomotives on same trucks. Switch for reversing direction of trains is built into Rectiformer. Throttle shows scale miles per hour. Unit also has A.C. outlet for operating switches, automatic loading equipment and other equipment. Electronic tube has long life, and may be replaced as easily as a radio tube.

The best way to operate Electronic Propulsion Locomotives
The Electronic Rectiformer is a complete power source containing an Electronic tube which changes A. C. house current to low voltage D. C. — the current required for Electronic Propulsion locomotives. Throttle controls speed of train only and shows scale miles per hour. Direction of train is changed by pushing separate switch. Unit has two outlets: D. C. outlet for operating Electronic Propulsion or standard locomotives. A. C. outlet for operating track controls and equipment. Two built-in circuit breakers — for A. C. and D. C. Unit operates only on A. C. house current, 110 to 120 volts. $25.00. Denver and west, $26.25.
