Lionel 1053 Vintage O 60 Watt Transformer w/Whistle Control VG

Lionel 1053 Vintage O 60 Watt Transformer w/Whistle Control VG

This is a Lionel 1053 60 Watt Transformer. The 1053 Transformer is a medium-sized 60 watt transformer and can control a single set of trains. It is designed to operate small to mid-size layouts -- certainly no larger than on a 4' x 8' table. As Lionel looked to reduce expenses in the late 1950s, this smaller transformer became the standard power supply in beginner sets -- replacing the 90 watt 1033 transformer from the early 1950s. Today, this transformer is frequently used to supply auxiliary power to accessories and switches or simply to operate a small set under the Christmas tree during the holiday season. Standard features on the 1053 include: 60 watts, Single control to operate one train, Horn and whistle control button, also, It does not include a directional control handle or button.
