Reproduction "Pocket" Railroad Lanterns

[RonaldB]

Does anyone know who manufactures and or sells reproduction "pocket" trainmans lanterns, or does anyone want to get rid of one? These look like the trainman lanterns that use a square 6 volt battery, except that they use only 2 D cells. Years ago, passenger conductors sometime had them, they were usually chrome plated. Does anyone have experience with them? I wonder if they throw enough light to work in very dark conditions? I work for a railroad and am considering obtaining one as they are lighter and smaller than the ones supplied to us.
