What is the extra need of locomotives just because the railways can’t be bothered to buy some driving cabs.

@pony One time Amtrak had to have cab cars in front of the locomotive, that was funny looking.

@crzwdjk weird things can happen, like back in the day when some regionals around brno had extra carriages for some services and it made logistically sense to attach them at the end of a train with a driving cab and a loco, putting the locomotive very oddly in the middle of it

@pony @crzwdjk what do you mean by driving cab? I can't find any picture of it. Is it like a remote control for the locomotive
