Do you know a child who is infatuated with railroad crossing signals? I know I do and he loves playing with this little railroad crossing gate. I designed and built this using 3D printed plastic parts, aluminum tubing and custom electronics to run the show. Check out some of these cool features:
LED flashing wig-wag signals and gate lights
Motorized gate arm lowers and raises at a realistic speed
Retro-reflective tape on both sides of the gate
Recording of a real crossing bell plays while the gate lowers (on/off sound switch located inside)
Two modes:
Manual mode let's you control the action with the push of a button
Automatic mode raises and lowers the gate every 10 minutes like trains are coming and going
Runs for many hours on 3 AA batteries (batteries not included)
Approximately 1:16 scale, 10" tall to top of bell, 9" long gate, 3/4" diameter lights
Ships in 3-5 business days
Makes a great gift for play or display!
A note about 3D printed parts: The process of 3D printing does not leave a perfect surface finish. The parts used in this toy look great at a distance, but you will see imperfections up close. These are not defects in the part, but rather artifacts related to the printing process. They do not detract from the use of the toy, but you should be aware that it won't look the same as a toy made with injection molding. The pictures used in this listing are of the actual item.
