You didn't ask that. You asked what is it.
Anyway, it would be a 73 Class I think.

NSWRTM123 - it wasn't you turn to post - I wish the post after my "Excuse me" was still there as it told you rather succinctly what you should do (pull your head in).
To put it more nicely:
* wurx posed a question
* An answer was provided (mine in this case) but is yet to be confirmed, so the question is still open - it's not like it had been answered and I hadn't replied, but even then it wouldn't be your turn.
* The polite thing to do is PM the person who needs to post a response (wurx in this case) and remind them in a friendly manner a response is being awaited in the quiz (be it question or answer)
To jump in of your own accord and claim a floor that's not there to be claimed, with a photo pinched off the ARDP website IS NOT CRICKET.
I will send a message to wurx, but he isn't on here every day, so I don't expect an immediate response. We will then take it from there ...

There is two problems here. biqua has thorougly & adequately addressed the first part, and thereby saved me having to do so (thanks mate  )
The second problem is this: the TRN mechanism got turned off/reset when someone(s) deleted a post(s). Like some people, due to actually having a life outside of Railpage Australia™, and because I'm in the industry & doing shiftwork, I don't always have the time (much less the energy) to go chasearsing after threads (even ones where I have "the floor") where the TRN thingy has been inadvertently "reset" on me. THAT'S why "no responses for two weeks" 
For interest and amazement, biqua's guess was reasonably accurate. It is a desto control pad - but it's in an S-set:
Image opens in a new window
To make it a challenge, naturally I cropped it, not noticing the colour of the background that resulted when doing the crop (I admit it, I'm a photoshop duh), and making biqua think Tangara.

Yeah, I thought desto control as I vaguely recall seeing something similar looking get fiddled with by bus drivers at the start of a run - the yellow cropping I had a vague thought in the back of my mind might just be cropping rather than a panel - maybe I should have followed through with that thought.
Oh well, given I was half right, and I have nothing to post anyway, I will send a PM to the person I saw get the 73 sandbox right - if he's not interested I will pass it on to Shacks.
I'll let you know ...

There was a mixup Shacks if you reread my post, but it doesn't matter now as the other user has also passed on his turn. As for your photo, no idea ...
