Vintage Railroad Lantern, Star Flasher 215 T, Blue, Working.
Transistorized Warning Light. Star Headlight & Lantern Co.
Railroads used blue lights to signal to railroad operators that workers are on, under or between railroad rolling equipment.
Battery is not included. It uses a standard 6V square lantern battery.
There are two “on” positions and two bulbs, one is a backup in case one bulb burns out.
Includes working two bulbs. One 502 which is correct for a 215 T, the other is a #27 which is not so correct (but it does work).
Includes a note from the previous owner. It was his father\'s light, he worked on the Erie Lackawanna Railroad and ConRail Railroad.
Please ask questions if you have them. I can email you a short video showing the lantern flashing. For some reason, I can\'t get it uploaded to the listing.
5/12\" diameter at the base, 11\" tall.
Please look at my other Star Lantern listing. They would make a great pair. I will combine
