Anyone familiar with the four-aspect dwarf signal at the east end, Track 2, on the old Philadelphia & Reading bridge in Harrisburg?

Anyone know what all four aspects are?

Probably slow clear, slow approach, restricting and stop.

That's what some of us are thinking. Lenses top to bottom of G/Y/Y/R. Two yellow aspects may seem redundant (why not just one with the yellow lighting control circuit wired to flash or not flash depending on the situation), but I have seen three-aspect colorlight signal heads with two yellows.
