Subject: Serial numbers on Virginian Railway lanterns


Just joined the NW Mailing List.  Am a life long rail fan (particularly the Virginian & Norfolk & Western Railways), but consider myself only a amateur compared to all of you on the mailing list.

My question is about serial numbers (the letter K followed by numbers) on the lantern lids of Virginian Railway lanterns.  Is there any known way to trace particular serial numbers (issued to who, where used, when used, etc.)?  Thank you in advance for any help or assistance.  Kindest regards.
