Mmmm, turbos
I'm planning on installing some crossing signals on my layout, but I want to seek some advice first. Who here has installed them, which brands, and what advice would you have based on experience?
I really like the very prototypical look of the Details West sets, but they don't seem to be easily made operational. (?) Some sets seem a bit too clunky. I'd love a modern boulevard style but the only manufacturer I see making them is NJ International and I don't feel their design looks right for what I see near me.
No gates. Just like the prototype, I may or may not install them separately, later.
Lastly, what are the elements to make these work? I ideally I want them to function even when the lights are off, so it seems that a light sensor is out of the question....
So in short... whaddya like, and why?
