    Hi Stephen, I have seen this in operation before and I did some research on the internet and found that it appears this kind of set up only comes in O gage???? But I imagine that you could possibly use the products and “bash” them to be used on other gages. Just key in “auto reverseing bumpers” and you should get the info you need. I was thinking about doing this with my N gage layout for quite a while now. Tony P
