...or more. I think it was even up for sale before I got my Eaglelux. At the time, the seller wanted $400 for it.
Anyway, glad to see that it's now in Joe's hands. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Could be an early OSHA compliant cap (it just looks like soft tweed)

I think he's putting 'blackout' covers on the lenses during wartime...

Check out the "GO" lens! Thought the only command used in these was a "STOP." Also, the top and bottom are completely black.

That picture there was the first style of ATE signals, with the fully removable porthole doors. The generation after this had a dual door lock that sat in between the aspects (so directly between red and amber and amber and green) and locked both the one above and one below the lock. Then, of course, the generation after this is the one with 2 locks per door, as per most people's signals.
The French marketed ATE/Plessey lanterns used the centre door locks too.
GO lettered lenses were banned by 1957 due to the fact green doesn't mean go.
Your signal there, Joe, looks incredibly good in the bare metalwork! Good catch.
