This prompted by a photo of two 66s at either end of a works train.You see this all the time, but I have never stopped to wonder how it is done.
When this happens, do the locos operate independently or do they have some control system link? Or is it done by radio communication between the drivers? Is this the same in eg railtours, or do they use some sort of through-wired multiple working?
And, if there is a driver in each loco, which cab does the rearmost driver operate from?
