Ken,
     Unlike the freight style class lights, the use of two different 
color bulbs to illuminate the "streamlined" class light would suggest 
that there was a switch inside of the cab to turn them "On white", "On 
green" or "Off". Would this be correct? *Note in the drawings 1) that 
there is a bezel on the rear of the fixture to show what color is 
illuminated. 2) The original drawing shows the use of three bulbs, while 
the later retraced drawing shows the use of only two bulbs.
