I found one of the original pyle 60 amp 3 phase 4 wire wooden cord connector in excellent condition. catalog number 24-PECG. there must not be many of them in existence anymore. it’s completely made out of wood with copper plates at the plug in end. originally found it in the ’80s, it even has its original data plate on it in real good condition.
i have a Pyle National locomotive lamp type C-8029673 which has number boards in the housing. Can you give any info on this or where to look , I got the type number off of the tag which was on the top of the casting. Thanks !
I worked for Pyle National for only 5 years. ( mini room)
I was looking for what type of connectors they used to make, I wanted to include that info in my resume,
But I couldn’t find any information.
Lighting was made by the Stieber Lighting a subsidiary of Pyle National Company, then sold to Hubble Lighting. I worked for Pyle National for 22 years.

You probably have the casing for an old locomotive light. Stieber made those.
We found an old light that we were wanting to find information on. It’s a aluminum cast light that has a tag with Pyle National co. Type# 200125. The owner of it now was told it came off a locomotive. This light is also housed next to wabadh and Erie Canal. We didn’t know if it could be a canal boat light. Is there any information you can give me on this. I also have pictures of it if you need to see. Thank you.
I have the same one made by Oliver Elect Mfg. St. Louis.
