Remarks & Notes 
Operating and display instruments for the engineer on the right side of the 2-10-0 four cylinder compound C 5/6 # 2978 "Elephant" of SBB Historic. In the middle the suction steam injector, on the left in the foreground the indicating scale of the power reverse gear, which is operated by the wheel in the foreground). On the right the large mechanical "Hasler" speedometer, above and below air pressure double indicators (main reservoir/main air pipe). On the left of the speedometer the throttle lever. The black rectangular box down on the right is the indicator/switch for the automatic train protection (ETM-S). In the right corner foreground is the Westinghoue brake valve. The boiler is under full steam pressure of 15 bar/217,5 PSi at the moment. Compare this picture with the sister locomotive 2969 http://www.railpictures.net/photo/633995/
