Conflict[edit]

The article says Allan valve gear. The infobox says Stephenson valve gear. Which is correct? Biscuittin (talk) 21:27, 3 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Casserley, H.C.; Johnston, Stuart W. (1974) [1966]. Locomotives at the Grouping 3: London Midland and Scottish. Shepperton: Ian Allan. p. 141. ISBN 0-7110-0554-0. says Stephenson, whereas
Cormack, J.R.H.; Stevenson, J.L. (1988). Greenwood, William (ed.). Highland Railway Locomotives Book 1: Early Days to the 'Lochs'. Locomotives of the LMS. Lincoln: RCTS. p. 141. ISBN 0-901115-64-9. says Allan. On the whole I'd go with Cormack & Stevenson, since as an RCTS publication it will have been peer-reviewed and fact-checked; whereas there are demonstrable errors elsewhere in Casserley & Johnston's book. Page 141 is not a typo - it really is the same page in both books. --Redrose64 (talk) 22:42, 3 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
