This is the remake of the "Lionel Animated Newsstand", and it is powered by an old RCX. The newspaper boy rotates, the dog runs around the pole, and the man inside the stand moves back and forth. Only the newspaper boy and the dog moves nearly 360 degrees. The "animated newsstand" is now placed by the train station. My idea was made when I saw pictures of the original Lionel accessory from 1957. This project is now part of my own LEGO Trains layout. BTW, I was upset that my laptop gets frozen when I upload these pictures multiple times. Stupid laptop...
Please rate and comment.

I just made a better version (it's now slower and whatever). =/
Ah, yes. You might wonder why the long wire is over the railroad tracks: I'm planning for the next train layout accessory; the Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant with the "rotating bucket sign" powered with the little red micro-motor.
