Does anyone know the origin or the disposition of the Handlan class lamps that were hung on this locomotive for display in the above photos? Were they from the D&RGW?

The Rio Grande used these round lens lamps on the narrow gauge in the early years and I have found photos of them on a T-12 as late as 1930. Their rarity today would make them highly collectible and they would be ideal for use on 168.
