I said you already have the trackside shed. before I could finish my sales pitch for the idea he told me wait till the new cataloge is out and I think we have something you may be asking for and will like it. needless to say when I saw it I preordered one right away.
one question I have to those who have seen these in real life. would a double track mainline have one on either side? if so it seems with the fastrack version one would need two of them one for each track. the infrared sensor may not detect a train on the ajasent track. not entierly sure though till we get one to play with. these will surly add a lot of fun to an operating session.
You cannot reliably count the axles of two trains at once with a single led beam and detector. Each line would need one detector.
