However, one has found me!

Title: Steam Train GearsDescription: That was its original title. A close-up shot of some Walschaerts valve gear on a steam locomotive. Valve gear is (fittingly enough) what drives the valves, to offset the valve movement from that of the piston, and controls whether the engine runs forward or backward.Type: Widescreen, 1680×1050, Fullscreen, 1280×1024Credits: Again, by […]
