Jol,
I believe you can get what you want at Alpine Division Scale Models, since they own Suydam, listed under Trolley Supplies:
http://www.alpinemodels.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=ADSM&Category_Code=150
Spring belt drives are listed as item 150-1146, just scroll down. As to how to tame the belts, try an Email to them or post this at one of the traction modeller Web sites.
