Trains have keys? Where do they fit - in the side of the steering
column?
Yes trains at least did have keys and I would expect still do. I have
a set of keys for 38/62 stock, for the old 800s and 63xxs and also a key
for unlocking the desk on Brush, EE, and Crompton locomotives. I don't
know but I have no reason to suspect the use of keys to have changed.

Many years ago, a friend from BBC TV OBs went on holiday to Egypt. He saw
an OB van from Egyptian TV which looked remarkably like the ones he worked
in. He tried the door key (still on his key ring) and found that the "Unit
to BBC spec" even included the locks!

The key designation was TXxx. I still have one somewhere.


Regards,
