Weekend Steam: Stephenson Link Reversing Gear

 Many of the reversing gears you see on steam engines are baffling to watch and comprehend. That is why I like the first reversing gear, Stephenson Link. It uses two eccentrics and a sliding block to switch from one eccentric to the other. Watch if a few seconds and it is self explanatory.  Thank You, Merle!
