Playmobil 4109 - Steel Girder Car

[Polarblair]

I have a whole newsletter full of pictures devoted to the bridge manufacture (trolleys as well) but I cannot get to post it as it is in pdf format, also word format but it is huge.
I might have to resort to making a few threads and copying the text and pictures into them.

I would be interested in seeing that. Could you stick it in a public Google drive or drop box folder and post the link?

I've been up to my eyeballs lately and forgot about filming a slowmo. Unfortunately my phone has a bit of a potato camera.

I did however get a couple of clips uploaded to youtube to better show off the articulation of the 4109 steel girder car.

In other news the 7829-A Battery Holder has proven far more popular than I could have ever imagined.
Just as well, as my day job is constructing steel frame sheds & buildings which doesn't tend to happen in winter this far North!

I've also starting sourcing my own 2000mah NiMH cells to replace the batteries in the original black 4392 battery.
I just need to do a bit more research on the capacitor from the original pack as this is often corroded beyond the point of being re-usable.
