Not bad for a couple hours...
 
I agree. Please release that and I'll buy it right now. Hell, I already own every piece of payware JR has made, but I want MORE!
 
Those are standard EMD control stands, not the ones in the Reading units. They had a special stand that was centered in the cab and was usable from both sides. Since it took up more room than the normal stands, the front of the cab had to be built out to make more room. I found some drawings in an SW1500 manual, so go ahead and check our screenshot thread... :p
will it have dual control stands?
There's your answer. ;)
 
i found this on a another fourm about types of dual control stands
First is dual control stands, inwhich there are two seperate control stands on each side of the cab, oriented for the engineer to sit at for the correct forward direction. You have to disable one stand inorder to use the other. Inorder to cross the cab you go through the space between the controll stands. This setup requires no external changes to the cab.

Second is a bidirection control stand which is a big box in the center of the cab. The levers on each side are interconnected with each other, so other than setting the direction that you want to go there is little else to be done to change sides. However, because of the size of the box, the front wall of the cab (in low hood units) has to be built out several inches to allow movement from one side of the cab to the other.
