I watched the video. Looks superb. I thought I saw a flash (twice) as the emu went under the bridge. Added to the realism I thought. Wondered if it was a working third rail?

It is certainly possible to have a third rail powered and im sure some people have done that.
I think in this case the builder has fitted a few reed switches under the bridge
Which are probably activated by the EMU loco third rail pick up this gives a qiuck flash of power to a blue LED under the bridges.
As you say it gives an extra bit of realism
Express models do a range of lighting units which give differant effects an arc welder is one which would give a similar effect as the light on the layout

I am not sure but i think it may be a pop up rabbit that is sold at express models
its a novelty model railway item to create a bit more interest its triggered to pop up out of the ground by a reed switch or something mind you this rabbit if it is one is popping very high
