You might try using the func_train entity (its a bit of a misnomer -- not necessarily a choo choo train):
"A func_train is a brush-based entity that you can get to move around in some interesting ways." http://ameba.lpt.fi/~koukka/Hammer/Tutoriaalit/Func_train.html (includes example map) More here: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Func_train And check out this: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Path_corner (path corners are for setting automatic pathways for NPCs but evidently they work for a func_train as well) Good luck on your project.
