- Note
- "A control stand is a diesel-electric locomotive subsystem which integrates engine functional controls sometimes brake functional controls, whereby all functional controls are "at hand" (within reach of the locomotive engineer from his/her customary seating position, facing forward at all times). The control stand can be on either the left or right hand side of the cab, depending on region.
Normally, a control stand is oriented in the direction labeled "F" (front of the locomotive). Although front is usually the "short hood," a seldom-used alternate designates the "long hood" as front, such as on the Victorian Railways X class. Where operations in both directions are required, two control stands ("dual control stands") may be provided." - (en.wikipedia.org 13.11.2023)
