I would like to run more than 3 locomotives in tandem but after 10 minutes, the heat triggers the circuit breaker in my MRC transformer. Does anyone have any ideas how to run more units without taking the motors out of the units?
 
A larger power pack, that is one with a larger Amperage.
The one you have is probably design to power only one loco, so three locos is really over the limit.
 
If you separate the 3 engines and try to run them do they maintain the same distance from each other or does one run faster or slower than the others?
