Eric,

I recently installed the BLMA Cantilever signal bridge, with the Logicrail signal animators with infrared detectors. They work really good. Installation was time consuming, but pretty easy.

The only thing I didn't like, was the bridge wires are not labeled. They all look the same. You have 4 wires coming out of each pole on the bottom. I had to just hook the wires up, see what was working, and figure out which connection on the Logicrail PCB board.

Important note, don't forget to solder in the resistors that come with the logicrail kit. Ask me how I know this.... LOL

I am thinking of getting a couple of the BLMA Modern Cantilever signal bridges http://www.blmamodels.com/cgi-bin/webstore/shop.cgi?ud=AQkEAQ4IAwYCBxQUEBEcHAIHBwAIAwwECQkTEQAA&t=main.blue.htm&storeid=1&cols=1&categories=01001-00011&&c=detail.blue.htm&t=main.blue.htm&itemid=4030 and getting the block animator or signal animator.  Has anyone installed these and how is working out?  Any troubles installing or fairly straight forward?  Thanks a bunch
