This video shows the completed and final finished time train on a turntable to show the various components. As a stand-alone module it is second in complexity to the celestial train. However, the entire escapement, pendulum and second remontoire governor assemblies are not present.

If each train could be shown with its full complement of components outside of the machine (which is not possible) it would be a close comparison to the strike trains for complexity. In all there are four trains contained within three modules that sit upon the flat bed base containing four spring barrels.
