Title: Auto-reversing setup
Post by: w.d.oneil@pobox.com on October 27, 2010, 08:28:46 PM
We don't have a lot of space for a Christma layout and were thinking of an auto-reversing trolley set. But Bachmann seems to have discontinued theirs and their auto-reversing track system, No. 44547, seems to be a phantom that isn't available. Does anyone have a suggestion for an alternative?

Buy a commercial unit or build your own.

You can use a PIC which is very "easy" to use and program. Very flexible.
