No they dont have to maintain different knowledge, East Coast drivers will have been issued with a brief (document) highlighting the differences. Running gear is the same across the fleet but there are differences with brakes/parking brakes stuff.

sorry but you are wrong, the doors can be open and so long as there is enough main air (above about 6 bar) if the driver moves the selecter switch to forward the engines will goto 1144 rpm.

A voyager s engine speed only increases when the driver moves the direction selectee switch from nuetral to forward. The engine speeds up from 994 rpm to 1144 rpm
