All the waycar red lights I ever saw burned steady. This would include all types of SL-SF cabs and the wide variety of BN, Inc merger road waycars. AT&SF waycars had steady burning red lights.  Which roads had red lights that flashed ?

The CB&Q NE12's had flashing red lights under the ends of the running boards:

Frankly, I never saw them in operation either day or night.  The NE12's always carried regular marker lights on a train.  The flasher may have only come on if the train went into emergency.
