A number of these type of signal lights were purchased from Associated Metals off units being scrapped at Benicia, but I don't know how many.
The signal lights shown on the 1421 and 1442 are Mars products, while the ones on the FM (it's not really an SP unit) are Pyle-National Gyralights.

Like most of the non-dual control road units, 1421's rear signal light had been removed in the early 1960s.
