Starhyl automatic model railway

An automatic model railway where the trains themselves decide how the points and signals will be switched. This is done by sensors under the track. The 'Flying Scotsman' express and a goods train run through a sequence where they switch tracks and stop at stations while the circuit design prevents collisions. Designing the system was an interesting exercise in practical logic. This video was ma...

    4:12 I wonder what that fairground stall thing was for. I did wonder if it was for the children's game show 'to me to you", but that had finished airing its first series in September, and wouldn't start airing series 2 until July 1997, so it seems unlikely to be in the studio in October 1996.

    I always wanted to work there from the time I was 9 and Blue Peter had a look round the studios and the whole place looked so exciting and interesting. Never ended up working for the BBC, but it was a dream I had a very long time and videos like this make me admire the lucky people who ended up working at TVC. Not the same now with everyone crammed into Broadcasting House.

    Oh well, you please everybody, but here are a few comments from sax players who've seen it That's a well thought out product and a good video to describe it Nice video, thanks for posting It's definitely an innovative design! It answers the question of the oddball placement of the suspension ring without going to the trouble of doing a permanent re-soldering job! All in all, a very elegant solution! My compliments. Nice job and without permanent effects on the horn. V. nice Ray, I like it a lot.
