Switch stand lantern.  Contributor's Pick!       
Green or white meant straight and yellow meant into another track. The source of light was an oil light, which was maintained daily by a maintainer. His job was to keep the light burning at night. Imagine a yard ladder with 10 or more of these things lit up at night. When I first saw these, I was hooked completely.
