Back in the early 1980s I was fortunate to be invited along for a cab ride with a very friendly WVN crew, who were happy to have some company. These folks seemed to both enjoy and take pride in ( note shine on the bell) their work. I recall it was a gray, drizzly, day, much as you have captured here.

Any info on what the box is on the front of the cab on No. 52?

The box is for dynamic brakes...

Dynamic brakes. With the grades on the WVN, they probably came in handy.

Cool. Never seen dynamic breaks on a switcher before.
