Are you sure that the transformer is bad? Anything can fail, but the transformer is usually pretty bulletproof. An ohmmeter should show a near-short with both the primary and secondary. If either one show high resistance (anything over 100 ohms), then it probably is bad.
The transformer usually has some sort of markings on the frame or, for those which are partially enclosed, on the paper that covers the windings. If you can find anything, post it here and we can probably point you to some sort of replacement at Mouser, Digikey, or Newark, three of the bigger electronic suppliers that will serve the public.
