Perhaps Upside Down will oblige us with some of his wonderful enlarged photos?

Apparently I do requests now haha!!
Just so we are clear on what you want, I was understanding that they were Classification lights on the Locomotives and Markers were hung on the rear of light locomotives or the caboose at the rear of the train.  Fortunately for me, NZR didn't have class lights, carried Sidelamps on the rear with a Taillamp on light Locos and the rear of all trains.  A whole lot clearer eh!

Running light in the daytime could carry flags in place of lamps as well.

Class lights, and  Marker Lamps, in this case the #71 must have run light over to assist the scrap train on the grade.

and finally, probably non-regulation storage of Markerlamps.
