@bcschmerker Retiming a locomotive with Walscharts requires lengthing and shortening radius rods and checking fit of a tapered valve stem, and checking your combo lever. Not a new #3 drive axle. She now saves over 700 gallons of water and doesn't need to replenish her water half way up the road and sounds square.

The 29-spot is a transitional steamer for the Baldwin Locomotive Works, packing both Walschärts "monkey-motion" valve gear and slide-type valves on the cylinders (Baldwin used piston-type valves on later builds). Re-timing this locomotive probably means a new #3 drive axle, as that axle this video was apparently twisted.

As of March 2010 they were fixing the timing issue. We'll see on the March 15 railfan special how #29 performs.

Interesting video.
On August 15, 2009 I shot digital pictures of the first ever passenger revenue V&T steam train to run from Carson City to Virginia City since the year 1938, I made a slide show of the pictures and the vid is on my youtube account.
