Hi We have a collection of 4.5V train motors on the LDraw Parts Tracker, and I'd like some help sorting out the variants of this part. On the PT right now we have x579c01 (by Michael Heidemann) - http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/x579c01.dat - this is the 4x12x4 version x581c01 (by Michael Heidemann) - http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/x581c01.dat x564c01 (by Guy Vivan) - http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/x564c01.dat x215 (by Marcel Peeters) - http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?s=x215 - I think this is supposed to be the same as x581c01 (which is IMHO superior, due to the subparting). The peeron inventory confuses the issue by combining the 4 x 12 x 4 and 4 x 12 x 3 1/3 versions as variants of x469. Electric Train Motor 4.5V Type I 4 x 12 x 4 - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/x469a (no picture) Electric Train Motor 4.5V Type I 4 x 12 x 3 1/3 - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/x469 (no picture) Electric Train Motor 4.5V Type II - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/x469b (image looks like x215 / x581c01) BrickLink adds further confusion : Electric, Motor 4.5V Type I 4 x 12 x 4 - http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=bb07 (looks like x579c01) Electric, Motor 4.5V Type II 4 x 12 x 4 - http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=bb05 - which looks more like 4 x 12 x 3 1/3 (looks like x215 / x581c01) Electric, Motor 4.5V Type I 4 x 12 x 3 1/3 - http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=bb06 (look like x564c01) Can anyone help to confirm that there are just three variants? 4x12x4 : peeron x469a : Bricklink bb07 4x12x3 1/3 with stud2-like connectors : peeron x469 : Bricklink bb06 4x12x3 1/3 with solid connectors : peeron x469b : Bricklink bb05 Chris Dee (chris_w_dee@hotmail.com)
