Talked to a service tech at MTH today and I was told that the only way you can wire this on fastrack is with the infra-red activation accessory which shoots out a beam which reflects off the train when it is coming. He further pointed out that this could be used to adjust the timing of the disappearing passengers. He stated that I would not be able to use a Lionel accessory operating pack to do this. Seems kind of funny to me, but I am guessing there has to be another way to do this. He did state that a switch could be used, but it would not be automatic then?? How can this be done without the switch and the infra-red activation accessory or can it?
