@Unfinished_Projects I've hacked my way back into my Bricksafe pages so that you can now download the file. I hope this is helpful.

@Unfinished_Projects You’re most welcome.

A note on the elastic bands for the couplers. I use small bands which are sold in the UK at least as “loom bands” and can be bought cheaply in vast numbers from craft and toy shops (they are sold to children as a craft activity to be looped and braided together to make friendship bands, etc). These are smaller than normal stationery bands and exert a strong pull on the couplers once installed.

@Hod Carrier,

Thanks for this information.

Those bands are indeed cheap and my package contains 200 black bands, so you can do a lot with one package.

I used some of them on my wagons to center the single axle wheels back when it exits the curved track.

One band for each axle.

So far no problems, but i don't attend every wheek an exibiton, so time will tell if I need to remove them.
