Hi,

I am currently investing time into the possibility of automating my 12V
lego train via the I2C bus. My goal is to use a less as possible (relative
expensive) relays, which means that I want to put current into the 12V • devices
myself. I searched the train FAQ, but I didn't find any "internals" on the • 12V
devices (stop/go sign, automated switch etc.)

So is there someone who knows about the inside of the 12V devices?

Know about what exactely?

Maybe he needs to know how much current the devices draw? That determines
what sort of relays are feasible to use, I think... I dunno.
