This got my interest, I often have wondered about this funnel shaped apperatus on a pipe beside the Steam Dome, it doesn't fit with the sandpipes.  A flange lubricator would be a good match.  There wouldn't be the need to have a large reservoir as these locos didn't travel huge distances.  Flow could be regulated anywhere in the pipe with a spigot.  We once had two Diesels with flange lubricators as an experiment, I was surprised to see just how simple the set-up was.
