The best solution to this would be to have a electromanet under the tracks that would be push button controlled . The magnet would be at the neck of the yard leading into the "Bowl". A real retarder would not work in small scale. Also you will need to Number All your freight cars so that each has a Unquie Reporting number like CSX 897435 that is kept track of by a computer and is updated on were your car is in your yard or in your layout bv station
