The driver of 483006 permitted me to take a picture through the door of 483006 at Ryde Pier Head station. The driver's cab is compact to say the least and lacks a few modern comforts. The controls are pretty basic with the most modern part being the grey panel to the left that was added when the units were converted by BR for use on the island in 1989 following the retirement of the 1923 Class 485 and 486 stock.
