I swiped the image from u/Bertje11's post from several weeks ago, since it shows what I'm asking about. Just under The Flying Scotsman badge, in the center, there are two handles?
What are those for?

This was taken in 2016. Unfortunately, the railroad was leading this epic loco and returned it a few years later .
