Yes that is the entire running train with only the time train missing.

I'll be putting on a 12"  1/2 second pendulum
The escape wheel rotates in 25 seconds
Espcape wheel has 9 leafed pinion
fourth wheel is 36 tooth with 8 leafed pinion  rotates in 1 minute
third wheel is 48 toothed by 9 leafed  rotates in 6 minutes
second wheel is 45 by 10 and take 30 minutes for a revolution  Making and easy time train calculation

At least that's the paper calculation.
