Well, if you look at the B&O tunnel motors (BB-NOS units 1-3) from around 1900, they pretty much just went back and forth through the tunnel. from the station, into the tunnel, hook up to the train, and pull it through so the smoke from the steamer wouldn't congest the tunnel and get into Baltimore's streets. when you have a fair amount of trains, theres not much time for turning around at each end. These supposedly were the first american electrics, so that may have a little bit to do with it
