Description:

The lamp has a metal body, a clear glass globe encircled by protected metal wire, and a metal handle and base. Before the advent of portable two way radios, train crews communicated via hand signals during the day, and lantern signals during periods of low visibility or at night. This lantern with the red globe was used by station agents to signal a train to stop, sometimes to pick up Form 31 train orders.
