A railway vehicle cab is provided with a main control position and, for low speed work, such as shunting, auxiliary control positions situated close to opening side windows. At these auxiliary control positions a control handle is provided having a coarse but full control of the vehicle brakes, and restricted traction control and which is interlocked with the normal driver's safety device circuits (the so-called deadman's handle) to ensure safety standards are maintained. A time delay is provided so that a driver may move between the main driving position and an auxiliary position without the safety device circuits being activated to apply the brakes and possibly disconnect traction power. |
