I am working on an Inglenook siding shunting puzzle in SM-32, I wondered if anyone could give me advice on an automatic coupling uncoupling system. I am looking for a Buckeye style, but would consider looking into magnets.
I need to make at least eight items of rolling stock, each will need to have independent control over its A and B end couplers. I will look at using small RC servos as the actuators, with a microcontroller for control. each item of rolling stock will have its microcontroller to manage the couplers, and location detection.
Has anyone come across something similar?
