question about lionel IR controllers

Posted by ldabigdawg on Wednesday, January 19, 2005 5:36 PM

Can you use the 153IR controllers to activate more than one signal? I have a 90 degree crossing and when a train is crossing east to west or west to east I would like to activate both signals going northbound or southbound. Is this possible?

I have two Lionel IR Controllers on my layout and as long as you want your northbound and southbond to be the same color at the same time, it should work unless your signals are drawing a lot of current. MIne are the wheat of grain type bulbs, so there is not a problem.
