(...) Steve, Sure have! Here's a URL; you're looking for Lego.ocx, but all the docs & descriptions are there, too. I'm not sure that *all* of the functionality works flawlessly, but certainly most of it does. You need Windows. (URL) used it to (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: multi train dogbone
 
I like the angled sensor idea also. As for my delayed sensor, I actually had two sensors and both had to be cleared, I figured the odds of two gaps over the sensors would be pretty rare. Do note that my sensors were (are) Radio Shack light sensors (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)

Jeff, I saw some source on Dr Dobbs about a year or so ago but it was incomplete. Have you seen something that worked? I got two of these controllers and would love to get some really complex action going on the layouts in the future! SteveB (...) (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.trains)
