DEP Sweeper...........funky looking,  

Very! In addition to that boxed front, I'm intrigued by the rounded window on the front side.  Looking closely through the windows, it looks like there's another one used in a window that's further down on the other side.  Canibalized odds and ends?

I suspect that the ends were added and that the curved portion covers and houses the mechanism for raising & lowering and "steering" the angle of the sweepers.  The cab area above it was probably added as well then and just to give the motorman a better extended view.  But that's all conjecture,
