There are some great photos here, thanks for posting this.  Curiously, L-105 #3700 is shown in-service without the “box” on the front pilot.  While I’m not very knowledgeable about this engine, there appears to be two sand domes for their respective engines on the boiler so what is the box on the pilot, another supplemental sand box?  Why was it missing in the photo? Tia

Isn't that a water brake? Recall reading something about it long ago.

No, that "box" is not the "Water Brake".

Thanks for another smart aleck post. Please inform us what it is then.
