Lar,
When I read your comment I jumped up to check it out. The center slider[1]
evolved from an unattached wheelset, which is why it had to be in the center. When
you said end slider I thought, "Power for my SD40!" I did not try to make it, but
there would be a problem. Put a motor on a curve and then put two trucks separated
by three studs on a curve. The motor is held in place snuggly, the dual wheelset
truck does not fit snuggly. I think the extra bit of slop, in the dual wheelset
truck, is needed for my design to work. With a motor, the third wheelset has to
move from side to side much more than my design would allow. A small redesign
would allow the wheelset to move more, but here may be--and probabley are--better
solutions.
