Antique Railroad Platform Street Lamp British Light 1930s Electrified

A rare British railroad platform street lamp, 1930s. Doubtful you can find another like this one. Lamp was gas, but has been electrified with new wiring and a damp location socket.

10 feet of extra wire to facilitate setting on a pole. Lamp is in good condition with some chipping loss to enamel hood, but none major and the lamp looks very good. Some small dings to the copper, etc. Normal wear and tear for a lamp that has been outside for going on 100 years. Fittings are brass, much of the cowling is copper.

Frame is steel and was stripped of rust and painted black. Copper and brass has a nice patina. Lamp has its Horstman timer, made in the 1930s.

Timer appears intact but is cosmetic with the electrical. Glass is an opal globe as shown. Light has various fitters for different sized shades or globes.

This is a large light. It stands nearly 50" tall and is about 21" wide across its brim. Please see out other listings for a large selection of antique and vintage lighting.
