Model Railway Automatic Signal Control Using an Arduino Part 1 - Getting Started 

Hello there, please note I've added a Part 0 Introduction to this series of videos so you may want to watch that before watching this...
This is Part 1 of a short series of videos where I look into using an Arduino to control signals on my model railway layout. In this part I explain how I have previously controlled my signals using an approach set out by Everard Junction and how I intend to mimic that using an Arduino instead. I then take a look at the Arduino itself, what components I will need for the project and an overview of how I intend to control the signals. I then finish this part by guiding you through the process of setting up your PC to program the Arduino via a video from the excellent Rudysmodelrailway RU-vid channel and his series of videos Fun With Arduino.
PLEASE REVIEW THE SHORT PART 7 VIDEO AS THERE IS SOMETHING IMPORTANT I NEED TO SAY ABOUT TRAIN DETECTION! THANKS!
