As manufactured by the Best Company, San Leandro, California, around 1905. Some of these behemoths remain preserved, even operational. Best merged with the Holt Company (known for their tracked vehicles) in 1925, to become Caterpillar.
The Best traction engines are easyly recognized by their three-wheeled design and their upright boiler - the horizontal tank is a water container. Other than that, the design was pretty antiquated for its time, with no brakes, no gear shift, and a top speed of about 4mph.
The most prominent Best engine is "Old Dinah", purchased in 1894 for hauling borax through Death Valley. Today it can bee seen sitting at Furnace Creek, in a pretty desolate state.
Another preserved engine, the very one that inspired me to this build, is nicknamed "Susanpuffer" and can be seen in action here on youtube:

As I am in the process of building my next Truck Trial vehicle, I am interested in creating a working and reliable 3 speed transmission. I started with my 3 speed transmission seen here. and created a way to have two power functions motors work to change the gears from one to the next. I wanted to use PF motors so I could control the system with a PF remote, and because I did not want to purchase an NXT system.
Two problems were discovered when I created the transmission: first, I would need a system that would move the drive axle one stud at a time since the transmission required three gear placements at three stud intervals. Secondly, the changeover would have to be fast, so the gears would not grind. Making this changeover fast, and to stop precisely at one stud intervals was the challenge.
The solution was to have two PF M motors powering a single axle that would rotate and translate that rotation into one stud movements. Each motor on either side is limited to one half rotation which will move the pulley wheel one half rotation. This moves the liftarm a total of two studs. By placing the differential in the center of the two motors, I can limit the movement of the pulley wheel to one quarter of a rotation. This in turn limits the liftarm movement to precisely one stud of movement.
By implementing this design into a truck trial, I will be able to shift between three gears with a PF remote and one channel, shift both while the drive motor is running or not running, and without having a neutral gear. In addition, this system is stronger than changeover gears, and uses fewer gears reducing total system friction.
See how the system works at here.

Another Unimog that I created to use the 94mm wheels and to solve a couple of performance issues that my last U500 had. The performance of the truck was disappointing.

size of funfair for both kind of minifigures. lego funfair is 10 studs wide on vehicles... technic sizes are 20-22 studs wide. Here I'm using 16 studs wide.
Looking back on the original version of this guy I honestly don't know what I was thinking. But I am so f*ckin' happy with this new version! I hope ya'll like him too.

If you'd like to take a break it's always a good opportunity to browse rebrickable.com and learn from the great designs available there. I'm building now one of my favourites, it has many excellent solutions. Unfortunately that cool rear axle on the picture won't be used, I felt the urge to replace the L motor with something... faster :)
Can you name this MOC and the designer?
This picture shows a little of how the functions work on the inside of the truck, and in the back hopper.
