There might be a small steam loop under the seat, but a man can warm that space very well.Those were useful devices to have when the brakeman needed to be out of the weather and still need to look to the rear in certain operations to keep watch.It would not be too cozy because of the water beneath and the assoicated forces of a steam engine working against the loaded train.On my model railroad, I give preference to doghouses on the steam loco choices. The 2-8-8-2 Y3 and the heavy 2-10-2 has doghouses with more steam coming.There is more, but it's late in day for me.
