If your concerned with looks, esp your track, go with some kind of opto-isolated detector like the NCE BD-20. If you go with the JLC enterprises DCCOD you can build the detector yourself, or buy it from someone like me that builds them and it is extremly simple to just plug right in. Logic Rail i think makes a crossing light controller board that works with these as does JLC enterprises. The stuff from JLC enterprises will work with signal detection systems such as CMRI.
No I havent. Check out the JLC enterprises website. I believe hes put up the crossing logic card. Easiest way to find the site is google C/MRI, which stands for Computer model railroad interface.
