Here is another very easy way for your consideration, all you need is the actuator from the 12V points/switch or the 12V automatic level crossings, a short length of string (Lego string is good :-) ) and a dab of glue.

Of course the yellow lever must be in the position shown and it does not move when the points are actuated. If a train comes through ‘against’ the points it can easily push the movable piece against the weak magnetism of the actuator.
