Definitely to avoid the time it takes to turn a loco (well, actually, we say "motor" if it's a pure electric unit) around. Commuter trains have a control cab located in the last passenger car. When a commuter (MARC train) runs north from Washington D.C. to Baltimore, tMaryland, the motor, or, engine, is in the front. On the return trip southbound, it appears the train is running backwards. The engineer is actually sitting in the last passenger car, operating the train from there. He/she also has a set of cab signals located inside so that the train can still operate at full speed as it is being controlled from that end of the train.
