Description
This is a New York Central Railroad Adlake #100 Kero Switchman’s lantern. Very hard to find model, as it is easily mistaken for an Adlake Reliable model. The top of the dome shows ADLAKE NO 100 KERO , though this is a 5 3/8” tall globe lantern. It is a one piece top. The rim is cast “N.Y.C.R.R.” The patent dates on this model are 1908, 1909, and 1911. The globe retainers for the Kero 100s and the Reliables are easily interchanged to accommodate a shorter 4 inch globe, however, and this is what is in this lantern, a clear Corning CNX globe, cast with the CNX logo, MADE IN USA, and TOP on the globe. Correct working burner, but the fount is a replacement. Lantern body was painted black at one point during its life and could easily be stripped back to original metal to increase the value of this rare model.
