The driving cab of BR218DB 'Rabbit' 218 458. Picture taken at Lubeck Hbf 2/12/08.Previous | NextThe driving cab of the 700T, it's taken during a TSR 70 approaching Taichung looking at the OBC screen in the centre. If you look carefully you will see a magenta curve on the screen, this shows you the deceleration curve that has to be followed to hit the restriction bang on the beginning and doing 70, it also shows you the length of the restriction. Once it has finished you get a new permitted speed in green on the speedo, currently this one shows 70 for the restriction, you will see the actual train speed just under it in orange.
