People have almost completly stopped writing Trip Reports on
rec.roller-coaster, too. I used to *always* write trip reports, no matter
what. The longest I ever wrote was a 98k text file on my first trip to

It most certainly does :) There are 3 diff's - one on the back axle set, one
for the front, and the requisite centre diff for splitting the power evenly
(or unevenly, as the case may be) between the front and rear differentials.

| (...) Well, I'll write them regardless, I haven't bought a set in a while to keep as a model, so I guess I just don't write them anymore. That and the good sets seem to disappear very quickly.
