Hi folks. Was just wandering do modern locomotives like class 68,70 and 88 still require a drivers master key to operate?

Classes 68 and 88 both use the same Vossloh/Stadler key. The class 70 has an American type removable reverser like classes 66 and 67

Don’t worry folks, I have no plans to go joy riding locomotives. I’m just a nosey git. A miserable one too.

68s do not use the traditional BR drivers key. I assume the same is that of the 88.
