OK, let's list the railroads they did use to use them. Either the Gyralite or the Mars lights can be listed. Here are a few links one of them has some pics. Notice in the pics that some of the lights appear to be "add ons" and not factory installed. When they were factory installed they were flush with the loco. <br /> <br />Now this also give me a question. The Alco PAs and the EMD E units (and some others also) had the one large single light, and some also had a two bulb unit. Are these lights a Gyralite or Mars light, or what? <br /> <br />And remember the large red light mounted high above the end of dome cars and obs cars? Were they Mars, Gyarlite, or what? Post more links if you have them. <br /> <br /> <br />http://www.trainweb.org/gyra/gyra_use.htm <br /> <br />http://www.trainweb.org/gyra/photo/wprr.htm <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Like I said Frisco used the single large nose mounted Gyralite. Mark said Rio Grande used the Mars lights. SP used one of the two. <br />
