I am curious about the correct use of marker lights for my models of both narrow gauge steam power as well as an HO-scale UP Big Boy. I know that white class lights indicate an "Extra", and that green means a regularly scheduled train. However, did locos in regular service generally have green lenses all the way around, or were there red lenses on the front, just as a rear lantern on a caboose would?
Thanks for any help on this.
