    In their later service lives they appear to have acquired flat panels with sloping sides on the cab roofs. What are their function?

    The flat panel on each cab roof is the mounting for the NRN aerial.
    Some locos have stick aerials ie 47s, while others have flat aerials ie 33s.

    I'm sure I've seen these on the remaining bubble cars still in main line service.
