The grade crossing is done! (almost...)

So got the grade crossing motor mount designed and cut...

Even installed!

The mechanism in motion...

And finally the grade crossing in motion! (Not as smooth as I want it to be. I'm hoping it just needs a little bit of a break in period...)

And a here is the IR LED and receiver mounted at a diagonal.

Hardly even noticeable in the middle of the track!

Also I mocked up the location of the SWIFT truck being stuck!

That's it for this month. Maybe I'll have the tip of my hat to my past [more] done for next month!
