Sorry Alex, I didn't see your post - Thanks for trying to help identify it though but the shape looks more similar to that of the AEC2.

I think we have these lighting the forecourt of Blackpool North Station. Perhaps regular train traveller, Mazeteam could confirm this?

It's the bulbous bowl which makes the lantern stand out for me. Notice how in the description AEC describe this lantern as a 'historical product'! Not exactly Victorian is it? :lol:

To be honest, I can't answer it, because I haven't been to blackpool for a good few years now! It's either Thursdays or Friday's I go out on travels, and if 'bingo' is on the blackpool route then I may end up over there... but until then I can't make any confirmations!

Is this Philips Modena? These recently replaced Eleco GR200s on the E Lancs Road at Haydock Island

Yep, the Modena

It's a shame those Eleco's went. I wished I took some pictures of them when I had the chance. I've been stuck in many queues on the M6 where I would have got good eye level pictures of them.
