Nope. That is the whistle in on hand and the throttle in the other. The controls on RVRy tell you relatively little about modern steam...I'll upload a modern locomotive's backhead...
The "steering wheel" is a Franklin power reverse control. The "steering wheel" control was bad for road switching...so a few received reverse lever instead (still powered though...so they weren't Johnson bars).
Yep, my coat still fits!

My primary goal is a large Oahu Railway layout in On3
My secondary interests are modeling the Denver, South Park, & Pacific in On3 and NKP in HO
