Locomotive question

I've always wondered what these objects seen on a few photographs of older locomotives are. They're a horizontal cylinder shaped doodad located near where I usually see the injector. I thought they might be some type of injector, I don't see a pipe connected to them.
Here's a famous photo showing one.
