English: Imperial Japanese Government Railways Class 6010 (later becoming Class ED53 and later ED19) electric locomotive number 6011, built by Baldwin and Westinghouse in the USA
Text Appearing Before Image: r gauge and two vacuum gauges, high tension voltmeter and ammeter for the traction motor circuit. A locomotive speed meter is also a part of the equipment. This meter is energized from an electric tachometer which is driven by a runner riding on one of the drivers. It is calibrated to read kilometers an hour for either forward or backward movement of the locomotive. As left hand drive is standard practice on the Imperial Government Railways, the master controller, brake valves and other operating devices are located on the left hand side of the respective operating compartments. The meter for Express Passenger Service and gauge panel is located at the right of the engineer.To the extreme left of the engineer is the independent brake valve for controlling the brakes on the locomotive ers on both locomotives when double-heading. Pantagraphs are raised and lowered by the manipulation of hand-operated push button switches located beneath the...
