Thanks, guys. This is my main interest, so I had better have gained some expertise. Mike, my modus operandi is to glaze the windows and then glue tracing paper on the inside, hopefully giving some vague outlines of what is within. The JEM kits, being tram size, don't leave much room after the decoder, et al., has been put in, well, that's my excuse for being too lazy to do it. :oops:

I made this video to pay homage to the creator of the kits. He may be able to use the movie to better promote his cottage business.
Here we go, here we go; here we go. Enjoy. (I hope you like up and back, and up and back . . . )

I'm sure it won't be a 'flash in the pan……:oops:'

All the effects are just like the real thing particularly the "whine" of the motor and the flashing overhead - very well done :pathead:pathead:pathead. Have you thought of turning professional. :roll::roll::roll::roll::cheers

Hey Kevin,Thank you Alan. I am sorry but I didn’t know that. Best wishes Kevin
Didn't want you going off disheartened so had a dig around the Database, the below link is to a layout that seems to have made good use of Reed Switches in a similar way - don't know if it'll be much help but it might be an interesting read if nothing else. The user was active last year, not sure if they still lurk but you could always try a PM and see if you get a response.
BURROWBY UNDERHILL, a resurected Rabbit warren layout in 009
(Disclaimer: I know nothing about modelling, i literally searched for Reed Switches and found a relatively recent thread that mentions them, and seems to use them under track in the way you mentioned - gauges, styles, involvement of magical pixies are beyond my understanding of relevancy)
