It may be complicated but I'm sure someones made one, also, since it seems so complicated it might turn out to be quite good :D

There are other companies out there doing the same thing but these are the ones I intend to use on my layout http://www.heathcote-electronics.co.uk/index.htm They have a range of modules but this one may be the one you are looking for http://www.heathcote-electronics.co.uk/P31MASsl.htm
