D Valve By: Phillip  Cohen	Comment Entered: 1/19/2011 6:40:05 PM By: Charlie  Giordano - Torrance We may have messed up but it is a learning process. This weekend we will get it back and going right and hopefully a little better than before. To bad that slide valve has so much slack in the linkage. Probably why it gets dead spots. The real locos had them too I guess though, and on engines like Americans it could be a real issue. We need a little starting electric motor in the tender!   Comment Entered: 1/20/2011 7:30:33 PM  By: Steve  Claude - Downey CA You know the drivers are not quartered correctly right?
