Mine is Bob's Triplet #1 (Bob Dalsemer, 1988)
http://bobdalsemer.com/Bob_Dalsemers_Web_Pages/Other_Dances.html
A1: First couple join both hands, chassé down center (4) , heel, toe,
heel toe with man's left foot, ladies right (4), chassé back up (4) and
cast off unassisted into second place, second couple moving up
A2: First couple turn contra corners
B1: All balance and swing partners, end swing facing up
B2: All chassé four steps, men to their right, ladies to their left, men
passing behind partners (4), turn to face partner, move towards each
other, joining hands in a circle of 6 (4), circle left halfway (8)
I modify the B2 1-4 into balance together, away and swap with partner
(top couple, California twirl, others rollaway)

Michael,
That's one of my favorites too. I'm curious about the chasse down
and heel toe. Are there any old English dances that have this
combination? Maybe French (shouldn't leave them out)?

No old ones that I am aware of. Some other modern ones.

That chassee and heel, toe, heel, toe combination is essentially a chassee
and beaten step combination, very common in 18th century country dances.
The beaten step was not usually specified in the description of the dance,
but was one of the steps that might be used whenever a "footing step" was
called for.
See my blog entry on Ashley's Ride for an example:
