I hope everyone had a great Christmas with family and friends.
I received a beautiful yet unusual present for Christmas this year
from my girlfriend a NSWTD hand signal lamp? (i think that's what
its called). The nice fellow that sold this to my girlfriend said that he
bought it at an auction and was told it was from early 1900's and used
by the Wellington station master. There are some markings on it
* A brass plate that has the letters WTN
* NSWTD and directly under that a letter T
* A serial number 5062B
After a little research i did find a picture of another one online HERE
If anyone has any info on this lamp especially the WTN plate please let me
know.

| WTN was that the abbreviation for Wellington? |
 |
| NSWTD or New South Wales Transport Department and what was the second T for? |

| A serial number? 5062B |
