Hi Peter. Here is an example of an ALCO signal lamp bracket I made from cast bronze for my 1.5" and 1" loco's. The 1.5" scale class lamps are RR Supply. I have a pair of Nelson Gray lamps for the 1" brackets.

I am considering the same RR Supply lights for my engine but was told by a friend he had trouble drilling and taping for 000-120 screws
for the lenses. Do you remember how you assembled the lamps?
Also the mounting brackets look fantastic did you fabricate them or actually cast them?
