If they can do it with trains, a turntable shouldn't be that difficult.

When you take into account the puny power consumption, 50mm of lift that disappears when the power goes off PLUS and that a magnetic phono PU must not be upset by strong or rapidly varying mag fields - it looks an impossible task.

But pictures like the ones I linked don't lie.
