[CBQ] Re: Way car marker lights 60's era

[William Barber <clipperw@gmail.com>]

Before the cab cars arrived in 1965, all of the commuter trains  
(dinkies) carried marker lights including the double deck gallery  
cars. They were electric, but looked like traditional marker lamps  
(red to the rear, green to the front and side).
