Hi Philippe,
Modified switch + motor + clutch + gear rack:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=445416
The one behind the shed is without motor on the photo.
I don't have any detailed photos of it.
Basicly it is made of a clutch and a wedge belt wheel
on the same axle. The wheel turns the point lever.
Not as reliable as the other, but it requires less space.
Thomas
