(...) Thank you Jonathan and Fred. There's no steering mechanism, the wheels are just posable. Here's the trick: (URL) You'll need to add a 2x2 plate underneath to make it more sturdy.

(...) Pierre, you never cease to amaze me with the amount of detail you pack on all your town vehicles. You will be the source of inspiration (i.e. a person to copy from) for vehicles if/when I build my own town layout! -Bryan (18 years ago, 17-Jul-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

Great models in a great folder! (These 5 models are not the only reason to follow the links) And I'm wondering about the wheels of the landfill compactor. Are they attached using the chain link/link tread 3873 on a gear wheel? Andreas (18 years ago, 17-Jul-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

I had not even noticed hat it steers! Is there an actaul steering mechanism from a wheel of some sort on the body of the truck? Perhaps you have to move the wheels by hand. It's so tight I can't tell. (18 years ago, 17-Jul-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)
