Pennsylvania/Long Island RR Dressel Marker Lamp

Item Details

Description

This is an intriguing lantern! It is stamped on the door with the Pennsylvania Railroad PRR keystone logo, but on the back is stamped LIRR for the Long Island Railroad. This makes sense, as in 1900, the PRR purchased a controlling interest in the LIRR, but it is rare to see a lantern with double markings! It has one red lens, and the correct inner chimney piece. It also has a correct Dressel fount and long stem burner. Eastern railroad enthusiasts will want this piece!
