    DUAL RAILROAD LATERN, THE SIDE DOES SLIDE UP AND HAS A WICK AND A PLACE FOR KEROSENE, THE LIGHTS ARE RED AND I THINK IT WAS PAINTED BLACK?? MADE BY ADLAKE.
    ANY INFO IF POSSIBLE, I CANNOT FIND ANOTHER ONE WITH THE DUAL LIGHT, I SEE A LOT OF THESE SIMILAR WITH 4 LIGHTS.
    THANK YOU

      This could be a crossing gate lamp. Auto traffic would see the red lights to stop and the train would see nothing.

      Adams and Westlake (Adlake) is still very much in business and loves to help with lantern research. I would go to their website and send an email with a picture to them.
