Looks good for a static display, but I wanted to build a dynamic display
that load/unloads the containers automatically, completely run by RCXs.
The "Road Train" that transports the containers was designed to run
autonomous (following a black line on the ground, stopping after
entering the loading bay and opening the cargo locks, waiting for a
signal from the crane RCX, closing the locks and depart again).
The RCX of the crane starts when it gets the signal from the Road Train,
and loads/unloads containers, and launches the Train again when done.
Yours, Christian
