There are gazillions of Blender tutorials out there, start with series such as "from noob to pro".
Moving the perspective is done using ctrl+mouse left, if I recall correctly.

Technically yes that's a F40PH converted to be used as a NPCU (non powered control unit). The main difference between this and an actually F40PH, it has a concrete slab for an engine.
