It's not so much the "conical" gear that takes the backlash out of the setup
that Bob Fay provided links to, but the ability to use the technic axles as
torsion springs and keep the gear teeth in the train loaded at all times.
That particular gear does make it much easier to do this trick with out
breaking LEGO(R) parts though : )
