DUAL CAB: Dual CAB locomotive has two driver cabins

with one control console of each cabin.
The Dual cab Locomotive control is based on BL Key

concept of Electric Locomotives. Each CAB will have a
BL Key. Existing CAB (SH side) is named as CAB#1 and
new CAB (LH side) is named as CAB#2.
In which cab BL key is inserted and turned to 'ON', is

called Active CAB other one Inactive cab. We can
operate locomotive from Active CAB only.
