Gene...I have always heard them referred to as a "Swift train order 
signal"....I have always assumed that swift was a style rather than a 
manufacturer.  However...I have occasionally been wrong about some 
things....even today.

All,
Have another question for the group. Attached is a photo of a train order board 
used on many lines west depots. It appears to be made for a lantern to set 
under the paddle for use at night. Other photos would indicate that these were 
electrified in later years with what appears to be a marker light mounted under 
the paddle. Is there a name for this type of signal. I read one publication 
where it was called a “Swift” but it was in quotes so not sure it was the name 
of the manufacturer or a slang term.
Thanks again,

Gene Tacey
