Reply to "Sourcing Block Control Components"

With an isolated LED supply, it would be very easy to use the unused contact of the relay with the common to toggle between red and green, just need a couple of resistors to accomplish the trick.  I am spoiled by having a ton of salvaged DPDT relays, but they're not really necessary. 

One additional point.  If you're putting a fairly large capacitor behind the bridge, I'd also suggest a small resistor to limit the inrush current to minimize arcing of the wheels as the capacitor initially charges.  Even a few ohms makes a large difference.
