Need help changing coding on arduino no experience

[Theshay]

I am trying to program an arduino r3 to operate crossing gates and lights on a train table. I have found several different codes but dont have coding experience to change them to my needs. I am using 2 reed switches 2 leds and two servos. also have 2 10 second sound cards that i wish to activate. My goal is to have 1 reed switch activate the servos and the lights along with activating the two sound cards the second reed switch will deactivate everything. this is the code i would like to change i need to take out the third led

this is the code

include <Servo.h>


class Flasher
{
// Class Member Variables
// These are initialized at startup
int ledPin; // the number of the LED pin
long OnTime; // milliseconds of on-time
long OffTime; // milliseconds of off-time

// These maintain the current state
int ledState; // ledState used to set the LED
unsigned long previousMillis; // will store last time LED was updated

// Constructor - creates a Flasher
// and initializes the member variables and state
public:
Flasher(int pin, long on, long off)
{
ledPin = pin;
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);

OnTime = on;
OffTime = off;

ledState = LOW;
previousMillis = 0;
}

void Update()
{
// check to see if it's time to change the state of the LED
unsigned long currentMillis = millis();

if((ledState == HIGH) && (currentMillis - previousMillis >= OnTime))
{
ledState = LOW; // Turn it off
previousMillis = currentMillis; // Remember the time
digitalWrite(ledPin, ledState); // Update the actual LED
}
else if ((ledState == LOW) && (currentMillis - previousMillis >= OffTime))
{
ledState = HIGH; // turn it on
previousMillis = currentMillis; // Remember the time
digitalWrite(ledPin, ledState); // Update the actual LED
}
}
};

class Sweeper
{
Servo servo; // the servo
int pos; // current servo position
int increment; // increment to move for each interval
int updateInterval; // interval between updates
unsigned long lastUpdate; // last update of position

public:
Sweeper(int interval)
{
updateInterval = interval;
increment = 1;
}

void Attach(int pin)
{
servo.attach(pin);
}

void Detach()
{
servo.detach();
}

void Update()
{
if((millis() - lastUpdate) > updateInterval) // time to update
{
lastUpdate = millis();
pos += increment;
servo.write(pos);
Serial.println(pos);
if ((pos >= 180) || (pos <= 0)) // end of sweep
{
// reverse direction
increment = -increment;
}
}
}
};


Flasher led1(11, 123, 400);
Flasher led2(12, 350, 350);
Flasher led3(13, 200, 222);

Sweeper sweeper1(15);
Sweeper sweeper2(25);

void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
sweeper1.Attach(9);
sweeper2.Attach(10);
}


void loop()
{
sweeper1.Update();

if(digitalRead(2) == HIGH)
{
sweeper2.Update();
led1.Update();
}

led2.Update();
led3.Update();
} [/CODE]

I am trying to program an arduino r3 to operate crossing gates and lights on a train table. ...

This code could be improved a lot, but I have a few questions before proceeding.

1) I assume that you want the two LEDs to blink on alternately, like regular (US) train crossing signs do?

2) You say that you want one reed switch to turn the signal on, and the other to turn it off. How will these switches be placed and activated? Normally there is a switch placed a couple inches from a road crossing, on both sides of the road. As long as either switch is activated, the crossing signal stays "on". So it is not really that there is an 'on' switch and an 'off' switch, but that the signal turns on if either switch is activated.

3) How much electronics and Arduino (programming) experience do you have?
