Z driver console

[Malcolm Miles]

Anyone know whether this is a Z1, Z2 or Z3 console?

 

Bought it years ago, now what do I do with it?

 

Best wishes,

Malcolm

Z1 or Z2, they were both the same.

Note the new black over plate for the door controls. The Z tram door switches were changed.

The red light at the door switches was to indicate 'door open'.  

There is a points switch rather than the earlier points button, so that will date the panel.

I think the colours of the brake release button and the gong button are wrong.

The hole to the right of the PA button was for a plug in microphone, added in the 90s when trams became one person operation. 

The bracket to the left of the speedo was to hold a flexible stalk microphone.

The unlabelled switch to the left of the PA switch might have been for a cooling fan on the bulkhead to the top right of the driver. 

It's interesting history but I don't know what you would do with it.

My guess would be a Z1 console.
