<p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">Maybe the desktop design was just a fashion statement to convey a revolutionary, modern sense of being advanced for locomotive controls. Makes it look kind of like a computer work station. It is also sort of automotive or aircraft style with the desktop being somewhat like a dashboard. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">It was probably a product of industrial designers who develop product style.
