Hi Guys,
I am building this loco in 3.5 inch gauge. I am about to set the valve gear eccentrics. Is there a better way than just guess work. This model has piston valves. Drawings do not show any info on valve set up or eccentric positions. The eccentrics can only be set in the correct position. So why mess about adjusting this and that until it runs. Would like to get these correct then set the valves, any advise would be great.
Regards Paul
