I don't think I am familiar with this particular cab design. What did I miss?

GE's first widecab. Never sold to anyone else due to safety concerns from crews and deemed dangerous. After CSX merger were converted to B units for this reason and never to lead again. SBD owned all 10 in this model

Excellent shot of a locomotive that should be in a museum today (shame none were saved)!

And if they weren't odd enough, they are riding on EMD trucks.
