Well, sort of... the robotic forklift I brought to HoB is currently the most
complex module (that I *know* about) that requires an RCX, but there are some
other options. A ball-sorting mechanism is something I've played with, but not
built into a module yet. Steve & I have also tossed around the idea of a GBC
module that plays a game with the spectators (using balls plucked from the
stream to play Tic-Tac-Toe, for instance).

Yeah, but I didn't say I had done it yet :-). One solution is to elevate the
track, but we don't want to make the train(s) any more complicated.
