The box near us would be a cable carrying tray. Note the bonding wire (with yellow tags) to earth this part. Tiny wheels !

One can see the bag of the air suspension and regular tread brakes - not disk brakes.The disk shaped item on the left axle may be a tachogenerator to measure the wheel speed.

A very beautiful & informative snap. Air Tanks & Auxilary Air Tanks, Wheel Axles & the Groves covered which will join to the groves of the electric motor & lastly Disc brake system.

The technology used in this kind of Couplers is one of the best foolproof technology.

I zoomed up the high res image and the coupler reads "Schaku" which is most likely the name of the German manufacturer. All I know about a Scharfenberg coupler is that it helps in automatic coupling.
