Note the HANCOCK air horn on the cab.  I wonder how those things rode on the long, rigid trucks?  And I can't believe they only put 1 air cylinder per truck to brake all 3 axles!!

My friend and mentor SP sengineer Andy Smihula ran these on a Saugus-Montalvo local local a few times and said they were the roughest riding diesels he ever ran.
