In the other is a smallmotor-generator set ancl the high-speed circuit operating cabs contain the master controller, indicat-ing instruments, and a small air compressor (in the No. 2cab) operated from the battery circuit with sufficient capac-ity for raising the pantograph. Near the controllerare the usual air-brake handles for standard trig locomotives for the CASCADE DIVISION OF THE CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE & ST. PAUL RAILWAY 830 Electbic Railway Journal Vol. 54, No. 18
