Tony,
This is pretty ingenious!  I really like how the train moving the lever
makes the button on the battery box get pressed.  :-)

A neat mechanical solution.

Thanks- I had thought about doing this with Mindstorms instead, using a
light sensor to detect the train.  I was very happy to be able to come up
with a *much* simpler and cheaper solution.  Now I have to work on powered
points!

I call it the Perpetual Duplo Motion machine.  Check it out at:
