Canadian Railroads > on this day, 10 years agoDate: 11/07/18 03:00 on this day, 10 years ago Author: hoggerdoug Nov 7, 2008 and some images from the office on BCOL 4650
images: 01 a stack of stuff, top to bottom OEM screens, CDU and radio 02 CDU for the rear end device, showing rear - front comm failure, 3152 feet dialed in and no air pressure on the rear.

I think SD45X is asking if it's a factory Locotrol installation, or if BCR added the equipment later. Harris equipment was usually an after market addition iirc, which would explain the question.
