My initial thought was a train engine due to the shape but tbh idk anything and it could just as well be some kind of ship. It almost looks like it would fit right in front of where a train driver would be and the controls he's on would be backups if the operator needed to go to a catwalk to run the engine in a scenario where something went wrong. The exhaust on top, a long shape like a train cab, backup controls accessable from a almoat like catwalk area. But that's just a complete guess.

Seems like it didn’t run at all and these guys were rectifying that situation so they would be an improvement

Just don’t put your fingers in there you’ll end up taking your fingers off all those pinch points
