Automating the monorail point should still not be difficult. (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

I put a terrible photo up at (URL) that the only digital camera I have is a Lego cam, so the photo is poor. Just a quickie to give people an idea of what I did.

The only problem I found is the motor gives off a lot of torque when the switch is done being switched. Sometimes the motor would pull (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.org.us.michlug)

Here are some pictures of the barriers. (URL) think Larry gave a decent description of how these were made. The plexiglass is 8" high, I used a 24"x48" sheet and cut it into 3 pieces.
