    These Lanterns look like they could have been used on the railroad, I am not sure if they were used on trains or not or if they have any value, any ideas?

      Looks like the first two are vintage..brakeman's lanterns..the other is probably a carriage lantern.

      Thanks for the info, do you know if they are collectible, I was actually going to throw them out.

      I do not know much about these , but I would not throw them out . I know that I have seen Mike and Frank of Antique Archaeology buy ones like the one in the middle .
