"Rust, whats not to love?"
I've seen that video before, but it would be an animation/motion nightmare to get all the canopies opened and the display tables moved back after the train passes.
Hmm, What'd happen if Thai commuter rail headways are decreased, to say, every 10 minutes...
WHAT was that??

The tables would be harder, but once again a tortoise could be used to pull them back and push them out.
The really hard part would be the people, but I guess that is the hard part with everything we model.
And now you know why I model Japan and not Thailand...

Too bad the video didn't start a bit earlier showing the canopies and tables being pulled back.
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
Mine doesn't move.......it's at the station!!!

Interiors and people figures make such a difference. Especially the people.

HEY!!Watch THAT!!
All I get is bombarded with pop ups from your link. No video...(I know which one it is though.)
The easiest way would be to have everything move at once or as a single unit. With that said the table(s) unit could be built as sliding plate form with strings attaching to the canopies to the same linkage that hooks to a switch to kill track power when the trackage is blocked. Only allowing the train to pass when the path is clear.
