And, that's why I bought it. I was looking for something train-related. But, after getting it, I don't know. I started having second thoughts. I mean, I'm keeping it. I just started to doubt whether it really was a conductor's lantern. I've seen similar ones, but so far nothing that's an exact match. Maybe once I get the rust off, I can see a name or identifying mark I can search for. That’s the way it looked to me too. And, that’s why I bought it. I was looking for something train-related.

In my mind I can see a man hanging off the side of a train car in the late evening dusk, holding on with one hand and swinging the lantern to signal the engineer..., for whatever.
