LGB german lanterns have a milk glass insert along with the clear red

i discovered that the US lantern lens will fit into the milk glass hole (but not vice versa the milk into the US lantern)

i thought in particular for the UK, this might allow the unit to be used in other applications like a loco lantern-adding a wire bail, painting white or brass etc, and still

utilizing LGB stuff
 
What a unique idea. By the way, would you mind moving the car to the right just a bit:love:
