Greetings all. In my year of building up my Marklin collection and layout, I have acquired a few starter sets cheap, mostly just to gut for pieces, and specifically, the transformers, which of course come in very handy for M83 decoders etc. Anyway, I have two transformers, model 66185, one of which came from a starter set using that annoying and ugly black box C track, which it directly plugged into. However, when I attempt to plug this same transformer into an M83, the plug is literally 1-2mm too large, the output on the transformer is consistent for the decoder. I do have another 66185 transformer that will fit the M83, this particular one has an adaptor cable that obviously plugs into the transformer and has at the other end, the diameter to fit the decoders.

Now to the point, does anyone know of a part number for this adapter cable?

Thanks

Tandy (aka Radio shack) is deader than the dodo (although this gives me another idea). Thanks mate
