It was on display at the Smithsonian a couple of years ago. >From left to right are the Steam Plant Control Panel (the twin wheels are the ahead (larger) and astern(smaller) throttles), the Reactor Plant Control Panel and the Electric Plant Control Panel. There were two stools (mounted into the deck) in front of the last two and bench locker in front of the SPCP. Four people stood watch in Maneuvering when the reactor plant was operating. I spent a LOT of hours in front of that middle panel, I can tell you.
