[modeleng] Re: Western Region valve gear

Hi, can anyone please tell me the easiest way to set the valve timing on 
Western Region engines with the inside Stephensons valve gear? I have got mine 
to 
work reasonably well through trial and error but would like to get it better. 
Outside Walcharts was not a problem as I could see where the various parts of 
the motion were and work out the relative positions.  I have been told about 
tubes from the drain cocks etc but is there any other way?
