Wrong, its a RACO canteliever, (RACO 8 inch lights on the mast, and WCH/Federal Signal 12x24 inch lights on the top.


...It's literally at the same angle as before.

...But its strange though to see incandescent lights on a new canteliver, i'm also guessing that the bell is a General Signals Type 2.
