Nice photo. What is the purpose of the lever on the front of the locomotive?

The round opening has a kind of “aperture” similar to that found in a camera lens. The handle at the top can be used to regulate the amount of air supplied to the diesel engine from the driver's cab.

It is a rebuilt steam engine, converted to Diesel!
