As best as I can recall

Swerve drives on Einstein:
16 (2008, 2012)
67 (2005)
71 (2007)
111 (2003, 2009)
148 (2008)
1625 (2010)
1640 (2013, 2014)
2481 (2014)


File-card drive on Einstein:
71 (2002)

Drivetrains with drop-down wheel sets ("slide," "butterfly," etc.)
51 (2011)
148 (2013)
175?? (They have used these in the past, not sure if they did between 2003-2005)

Skid steer (tank) drives on Einstein:
Everyone else
