| | | | | | (...) Ahui - You can find the missing x169.dat file here, thanks to Orion Pobursky: (URL) you can't locate it, I can send it to you. That's the Technic 1x2 Liftarm that I use in the model's Lever.dat subfile. It's a critical element, as it connects (...) (20 years ago, 10-Dec-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

It works so fine, I planned to introduce Amaury Jacquot's modification of Chris Alano's mechanism you use to reduce a little bit the footprint (expecially the width) of the power unit.
