  Re: motorized points - beating a dead horse
 
(...) I made a design that used a clutch gear and fit into a house. It worked very well when the switch was "warm" but wouldn't always trip it when it had been sitting for a bit. But it allowed the throw arm to fully though the switch one way or the (...) (24 years ago, 3-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.robotics)

(URL) pic is finally all the NELUG memebers at the show explaining at the same time, "Yes LEGO has been making trains for over 30 years!" All kidding aside, it looks great!

  Re: motorized points - beating a dead horse
 
Great tip, I never thought about using multible pulley/rubber bands! A big problem is the detent, the two at rest positions are very "sticky". Naybe more then multible rubber bands can even move. I'll give it a try. SteveB (...) (24 years ago, 3-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.robotics)

(...) This stuff you've built is awesome, it must have taken quite a bit of time to plan this all out before committing the idea to brick. I myself am slowly rebuilding my LEGO empire, now if I could only win the lottery! (24 years ago, 3-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
