Locomotive headlight

Hello folks.

A local guy asked me if i wanted to buy a "light he had". I said yeah maybe and i went to have a look. Well, i don't collect train lights, so i passed on it, but i told him i'd see what i could find out about it and see if there is any interest. I thought since there is a sizable group of us that collect emergency vehicle lights, there's probably a group that collects train lights too somewhere.

From what i gather it's made by pyle, but i cant find any info or pictures of one quite like this or this large. Is anyone here a train light expert or could recommend a group for such things?

This thing is a monster, 24" diameter. The large glass lens is completely in tact which surprises me.

I work for the Railroad and will send your pic to my friend who works on the heritage fleet trains. We will see what he says about it. Late to the game but just saw the thread.
