It wasn't a cow.

It was the wrong kind of leaf, I expect.

Nice side-by side shot there.

Apparently, this Pendolino is missing the cover for its coupler. Quoted from a site:

For assistance or transport purposes the Pendolino sets have a end coupler behind the air smoothed front end. This is produced by Dellner and incorporates physical, pneumatic and electrical connections. When not needed the coupler is kept in a recessed condition and when required for use is pneumatically moved forward. Train supply sockets are also provided behind the front end door

Not a clue, but it'd definetly effect aerodynamics.

I think it slides up.

It looks like there are tracks for the panel to slide up on...perhaps it moves like a garage door. Definitely a strange look with it being run like that...
