I checked each of the bulbs, and they are okay. Since there are 5,
and it is new, I would expect at least one of them to work. I have
an analoge voltage meter. I'm just not sure what setting to put it on
to check the track.

Go ahead and look for 120V it is likely to be something like 12V but
start large and then move down.

Any ideas?

That wiring is not unusual. It is proper to do it either way.

Someone needs to measure the voltage at the transformer (voltage
in and voltage out). Remember that using a digital meter can result
in measuring AC voltages that are really not there. For this kind
of work a older analog meter is better. The voltage has to be
measured at each connection until you find one that is dead.

I would have to guess that if the transformer is buzzing, even a
little, it is getting voltage. Have you checked the bulb(s)?
