It's for the ease of moving the locomotive around between consist assignments. If the locomotive travels light (by itself), it is limited to 50 mph, but with the cab car, it can travel at track speed. Obviously, the cab end of the cab car faces away from the locomotive so that direction can be reversed if needed.
