Large Adams and Westlake Railroad Dining Car Side Lamp

About the Item

This is one of the more elaborate railcar side lamps you will find. These were larger because they were mostly used over dinning room tables. The interesting outrigger arms were designed hold the lamp straight on the curved wall of a train. 1n the 1870s this lamp would be fueled by oil. The lamp was rewired to take a standard light bulb. We also added an original 1920s switch to the lamps back plate.
