DESCRIPTION
Original vintage railway signal lamp / train closing lantern from Germany. This metal lantern features a red and a white lens and still has the original kerosene burner with a Kosmos burner system. The lamp was used as a railway signal or closing signal at the end of a train.
The lantern has a fine industrial appearance with red and white signal panels on the sides and a black lacquered metal housing. Inside, the original burner mechanism and reservoir are still present. A particularly decorative object for enthusiasts of railways, industrial lighting, train memorabilia, or vintage technology.
Marked with "DB 87", presumably referring to Deutsche Bundesbahn.
