ARR 1801 switches the Fairbanks yard during a brief appearance of the sun on a super cold day in December 1983.

What is that box on top of the motor?

Could it be some arrangement to blow warm air from the radiator down into the engine compartment?

That's an ex-Army GP-7 and was probably one that was built on switcher trucks, hence the change to the so-called "Type B" trucks from a scrapped ALCO.
