TomJ Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I hope this is in the right place - it seems to cross several forums. After a visit to Pecorama my son (and me if I'm honest) were rather taken by the automated level crossing where the lights came on and barriers lowered as a train approached. We quite fancy one for my DCC n gauge layout. Has anyone any experience of this? I've found the Train Tech lighting kit (although turning the LEDs into a warning light might be tricky) and the Veissmann level crossing barriers. What I'd really like it this to be automated so it all happens as a train approaches. As a concept this seems quite simple but I've no idea how to do it. My electronics skills are limited so any mentions of relays or servos etc confuse me!! Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Wintle Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 I don't know about automating the strike in to start the sequence, but the Digirails/Digikeijs servo decoder has a level crossing mode that will operate two servos (for the barriers) and flash the lights. http://www.digikeijs.com/complete-set-including-1x-servo-decoder-4x-mini-servo-and-4x-50cm-extension-cable.html Adrian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
