Speedometer

The gauge on top is to indicate the pressure in the Parking Brake cylinder.The speedometer in these locos only indicates and records the speed of the locomotive while the energy consumption parameters are handled and recorded by the central electronics of the locomotive and displayed on the multi-function display on the driver's desk.
