Short Globe lanterns started being used after World War I and continued being used into the 1970S. Lanterns were used as a form of communication with different colors of lanterns meaning different commands. Green: Is a warning signaling a train to proceed slowly with caution. A green lantern may also be displayed on a wreck derrick to signal the engineer of a wreck train. Most globes are signal green which is a blue/green or teal color of varying shades. A few are true Kelly green but the use of the color is always the same. This keychain is 100% brass that comes on brass chain with a screw lock carabiner. The globe is made of colored acrylic to accentuate the piece. A lot of detail went in to replicating this to look just like the Short Globe Lanterns of the day. This will surely be a great gift for any train enthusiasts collection.
