Having a hard time figuring out what type of device this was. Usually need two sensors in a beam interruption device and how does one bury this type of device without interrupting the beam oneself.

Here is a solution but its scary. What if the receiving beam is placed on the train itself. What if the train is fitted with a device that receives the beam and sets off an explosion on the train.

Standard wireless Infrared Motion Sensor like would be used in a home security system. The ones in my house are about 2 1/2" x 1 1/2" made to fit in a corner and probably have a range of about 100'. Batteries for them are lithium and last 3-5 years.

The placing of the device may well be part of the terror, to get us worried and to remind us that these guys are here.
