How many different types of lights are on a modern (i.e. 90's to present) diesel locomotive? There are the obvious headlights, ditch lights, class lights (not necessarily used in my time-frame), marker lights (I'm looking at you Conrail...), number board lights, and step lights. I know that there are more, I just don't know what they are, what their purpose is, and where specifically on the locomotive they go.
