Track Power For Single Continuous Loop With No Block Sections

Michael is building a Lionel fast track layout and wants to hear from others who work with the same system:

“I am in the process of building a 6×12 Lionel fast track layout. Can someone doing O scale tell me, is there any rule of thumb or suggestions on how many power leads to use to power just the track from the transformer so my one locomotive will run steadily? My layout is a single continuous loop with no block sections.”
