Funny you should Mention this! I *JUST* (last night) finished a two track
automated crossing with FLASHING Lights! I'm also trying to make a convincing
'ding' sound.

It has two micro motors to switch the posts and then an X stand with flashing
lights at the top.

If anyone's interested I'll post the code and pictures.
