(...) If you mean get a train to stop while the track is powered on, Tom Cook and I did develop a system for that. Using polarity switches, you can isolate/power a section of track via an RCX... We use this technique in our automated track crossing, (...) (23 years ago, 20-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains)
