Gab valve gear

Gab valve gear was an early form of valve gear used on steam engines. Its simplest form allowed an engine to be stopped and started. A double form, mostly used on steam locomotives, allowed easy reversing.
== Etymology ==
The word ''gab'' or ''gabb'' may derive from a word for mouth, recorded by the Oxford English Dictionary from 1724, and probably medieval in origin from other forms related to gossip or idle chatter. The OED also gives the steam engine sense of ''gab'' as a notch in the valvegear as possibly being of Flemish origin, from the word ''gabbe''. This is cited in the OED from 1792.〔''Specif. Kellys Patent'' (1792) No. 1879. 8 'Clear of the notch or gabb of the catch lever'〕 The OED also cites the obviously derivative ''gab-lever'' from 1839.
