<p>Model Railroader had an article about the funeral train in February 1995. According to this article the NASHVILLE had a Rogers cut-off valve gear. Here is MR's drawing:<br /><a href="https://archive.org/stream/assassinationoffunlinc#page/n69/mode/2up">https://archive.org/stream/assassinationoffunlinc#page/n69/mode/2up</a></p> <p>From there you can go back and forth.</p> <p>Here is a description of cut-off valve gears: <a href="https://books.google.de/books?id=1A4iiGAz628C&pg=PA192&lpg=PA192&dq=rogers+variable+cut-off+valve+gear&source=bl&ots=pu-wAkuYNr&sig=AQcamS94daT3kIUwULXhbKQXdZg&hl=de&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj10LLGooXbAhWks1kKHWNLBlsQ6AEIJzAA#v=onepage&q=rogers%20variable%20cut-off%20valve%20gear&f=false">https://books.google.de/books?id=1A4iiGAz628C&pg=PA192&lpg=PA192&dq=rogers+variable+cut-off+valve+gear&source=bl&ots=pu-wAkuYNr&sig=AQcamS94daT3kIUwULXhbKQXdZg&hl=de&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj10LLGooXbAhWks1kKHWNLBlsQ6AEIJzAA#v=onepage&q=rogers%20variable%20cut-off%20valve%20gear&f=false</a></p> <p>Scrolling down you find a reconstruction drawing on the next page. The valve gear wasn't patented and there are no historical descriptions.</p> <p>Please read yourself. With my limited knowledge of valve gear I would mix too much up if I tried to recall the essence of the website.<br />Regards, Volker</p>
