I have a HO layout no where near finished not that it probably ever will be - are they ever ? !! I see that the larger scales have a lot of out of the box trackside items that you can purchase that do something like working crosing gates, filling stations, etc. HO doesn't seem to have these items available so was wondering if people out there have built their own or just don't bother. I noticed a company called Circuitron but have't been able to find their company website just products and product numbers. How wold I find out what their products do ? <br />More importantly looking to learn from others out there on ideas and how they may have added movement or use sensors of some sort to do whatever. What type of sensors are out there ?, what's their function ? Trying toi find ways to add some "life" or automatic "action" to my layout. Sorry for all the questions in one post but find this forum a wealth of information. Thanks in advance
