How to hook up a reco gate light

[flat train]

I just found a reco gate light on the ground near a crossing so I took it. How do you hook it up?

Is it LED or incandescent?

If it's LED, attach a wire to the lower-left prong on both sides (if it fails to light, try swapping it to the other lower prong on just one side).

If it's incandescent, attach both to the top prong on both sides.

If it fails to light no matter what you do, remove one lens and inspect the bulb, as it's probably dead.

Also, remember that these things run off of 12VDC.

Thanks! Ill show you the crossing I found it by the ground at. I believe it's the one on the top, because that one was missing.
