This is a great site for anyone interested in steam locomotive workings and nomenclature. Check out all the links at bottom of page for excellent drawings and animations.

I found the site about a year ago and had it bookmarked. Later the site went down with no forwarding address.  I finally found the new site after a lot of searching. 

About "Walschaerts", the man.
