You can control a LEGO train via an RCX. If you are going to go this route
make sure you have a 1.0 RCX version. This version has a AC Adapter
connection on it. This is very useful if you are just going to have the RCX
stationary (as is the case of controlling a train). I've been working on
some code to have an RCX control a train. Currenlty, my RCX are doing
collision avoidance of trains. Visit my site www.geocities.com\jedi_agh to
see what I mean.
The idea I have for controlling a train via an RCX is as follow.
1) Use input 1 to start/stop train (start train @ medium speed)
2) Use inpiut 2 to cycle thru all speed (begin at normal --> highest -->
stop --> slowest speed --> normal)
3) Use input 3 to make train engine noise
4) Use only 1 output to control the train
Hope this helps you out.
