I took a few close-ups of the sensor last night, and uploaded them to
BrickShelf. Check out:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=2264
The first picture is the sensor itself with a few "common" objects nearby
for scale. The second picture is my reproduction of the exact setup that we
used the sensor in for the train show last weekend. The third picture shows
a better enclosure that I built around the sensor last night, using a 1x2
plate, a 1x4 plate, and a pair of 2x2 tiles, all in dark grey. (You should
be able to discern the construction details of this enclosure from the
picture.) The enclosure serves two purposes: (1) hide the offending
non-LEGO component and butchered cable, and (2) protect the sensor from
getting snagged in the undercarriage of a passing train.
