Charlie, Archie and Group - Packed away in "some box" is a collection of Q
rule books that my Dad accumulated over his career. It's been many years since I
last looked at Dad's rule books, but I distinctly remember a
Consolidated Code of Operating Rules from the early 1900s that had some number
of colored plates depicting various signal colors to be displayed on
locomotives, tenders, way cars and rear facing passenger cars. Among those
plates was one that showed the Emergency Bullseye signal that was placed
directly beneath the locomotive headlight. If any one on this list has such
a rule book, the answer should be found there in. It'll definitely be
interesting to see this question answered. Best Regards - Louis

I would say that is correct....the Emergency Bullseye
Headlight is the small auxiliary light we have been wondering about.
It's use and color of the lens might be answered by a CB&Q Operations
Department Rulebook c.1910
