Walschaerts valve gear

A revolution in valve gear design by the Belgian
Engineer Egide Walschaert
 
 
There is an excellent demonstration model in the
Exhibition hall at Oxenhope Station

 
By turning it you can actually se the sequence of
events in a full revolution

 
Doubtless made to explain to would be drivers
how the machine they were driving worked
