Well, I've done switch points with much success, and the cargo crane with
little. Here are some older pix, I've got some new ones coming up.

The eighth picture down is the cargo crane. If anyone designs a better claw
for this crane, PLEASE let me know. The LEGO one doesn't pinch well at all.

These are the instructions for my pneumatic switches. You will have to
physically modify the switch, but the result is small and fits in most layouts.
Note that as of this year, you can't buy these small cylinders through S@A.
Anybody got any to sell? I need three more. I'll pay five bucks apiece :)
