We report on observations of the kinematical structure of optical filaments in evolved supernova remnants, using an imaging Fabry-Perot interferometer. The radial velocity characteristics as seen in [OIII] λ5007 emission in one area in the Cygnus Loop are described, where four kinematically different components contributing to the emission can be recognized.
