Great job!
Now I'm going to have to ask my parents to let me get some more track for my
train.
Can you post some more details about it like how you were able to
distinguish between the 8 light sensors and what the yellow box is next to
the rcx and how you powered the track section on the bridge without having
it connected to the rest of the track?
thanks,
Scott
