My dad just gave me a lantern. He knows that I try to collect RR lanterns. The one pictured below says N.Y.C.S. Does this mean New York Central System? I thought I used to see NYCRR on various lanterns. This would be my first NYCRR lantern. What do you think?
I'd tend to agree with the Central. My NYC lantern is sitting at the Clayton train show or I'd compare.
Looks like a Dietz. Are there other markings? The coding can sometimes help determine date and place of manufacture.
