View from the observers side.

Drivers View

The view that the driver will have.

Instruments

Close up of instruments etc.

Instruments

The rear cab wall. There is a wardrobe sized gap between the doors at the rear of the cab and the doors to the electrical cabinet. No doubt this is intended to reduce the noise that has been a problem with the DQ class.

Fuel tank

The fuel tank gauge indicates a capacity of 7000 litres.

Bogie

A glance at the bogies shows why these locos will not be operating for a month or two yet. There are no traction motors fitted, Tasrail will fit motors from disused ZB class English Electrics.
