Executive Summary:
The valve is asymmetrical, with a more efficient fluid path when placed in
the reverse direction mode.
Mike Eorgoff
A lot of engines, even prototype, run better one way than the other.
The eccentric change mentioned by Kevin will provide a mechanically more
sound operation of the valve system. But you will still have forward being
easier than reverse. Not a bad thing.

well, Harry's 336 RPM and Mike Chaney's MPH/in both work out for a Ruby. :-)
Oh, yeah, 28 MPH if there was a prototype. The Ruby should do 1.38 real MPH

I think it is worth the money. Especially if you are interested in a vest
pocket Garratt. It's a 4-8-2+2-8-4 on 42 gauge.
I was wondering about the scaling of 1:23.7 instead of 1:24 to 45mm track.
Like the English doing 1:30 vs. 1:32, and the US doing 1:20.3 for 3', and
13.7 for 2'.
