Oh what a trip down memory lane. My family in 80ies USSR had one of those. Me and my brothers were the manual labor moving the train thing left or right for my mother, it required quite a bit of force and muscle. He'd be on the left, and I on the right, pulling, with my mother putting yarn on. She could do amazing designs for sweaters, both colors and the shapes/patterns of the knit/weave. It made the most specific Whooozzhhhhzhhh sound as it went left and right. Was also kinda scratchy on the needles, if you weren't careful. I never saw those here, which makes sense, commercial machines killed that.
