without a transformer center tap connection to ground its a zero power solution

With the chargers connected in series like that, each one only puts out 1/2 its designed output, so the final output is equivalent to 1 charger.

This was at first 6 volt system that was increased to 16 volt.

339/2 => 169.5/10 => 16.95-2*0.7 => 15.55Vpeak with this voltage its impossible to charge a "16V" accumulator, what technology that might be.... BTW, mains voltage is also not stable can be anything between 339Vpeak +-x%

Impression I got was more power for running a train set and leaving battery in the circuit. It did not seem wanted so much as battery charger. Just more power to run the train layout.

with every comment the purpose of this circuit does change....
