It's an SDP40F actually.

Yep, you're right. I was noticing the exaggerated side riveting and I immediately thought F40C.

Looking good Aj!

That's good. But not quite right. A good diagrammatic is in Wikipedia, here:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Walschaert_static.png
The Eccentric Rod makes the Link rock backwards and forwards, and this causes the Radius Bar to also move back and forth.
The Reverse Arm and Shaft lifts the Radius Bar within the slot in the Link. At full forward motion the Radius Bar is at the lowest point in the Link and the back and forth motion of the Radius Bar is at its maximum. This maximises the movement of the Valve Spindle, allowing the maximum amount of steam into the cylinders. As the Radius Bar is lifted within the slot the movement of the Radius Bar is reduced. This is the "cut off". At full reverse the Radius Bar is at the top.
Ben Neal managed to get this just right in his locomotives. To see it in action download, for example, his Baldwin 2-6-0 Mogul. "Loco Baldwin 2-6-0" on the Download Station works error free in T:ANE and TRS19, and shows the valve gear to perfection.

There's also an infinite number of youtube videos, for example:
