Good job man, I've always been a rail fan but never really understood all the workings on one of these beasts. Thanks for posting.

Its called a steam chest.. and it's not a high and low pressure cylinder..the top cylinder just directs the pressure to each side of the piston. Also, the rod connecting to the piston valve is the valve connect rod...not the eccentric rod. Eccentric rod connects the eccentric crack to the gear connect rod. Lastly, he doesn't dump the ash pan while running down the road lol. Where did you learn this stuff??
