W.S. Darley Signal

W.S. Darley four-way beacon with McBeth-Evans lenses.

Lamp/reflector assembly.  Note cast visor and lens unit twists off completely...this signal doesn't have door hinges.

Inside view of signal showing the mechanical/ magnetic disc flasher unit.

Close up view of the W.S. Darley logo that is cast into each visor.

Simple design, but this signal has a few remaining survivors still in service today!
