Hmm, I guess it might have been used as a 4 way wig-wag beacon before it was removed. The reds in both top and bottom sections and the missing yellow visors seem to suggest that.

The original lenses to this signal were TL4777 "Saw tooth" pattern. Since the bottom is an Econolite I'd have to agree with the assumption this was an RYG and then changed over to a bouncing ball beacon.

The Kopp TL-4777 type lenses are still easily found, I bought a RYG set off eBay around a month ago.

I went to the thrift store auction and found out the 2 signal heads close on the 3rd of June. The SS 4way is now $75.50, and the CH is still $15. A guy was looking at the CH for his "Man-Cave" but he wasnt impressed about no lenses, I took his phone # and would let him know as I could probably get him lenses, now that we use LEDs.

It has all reflectors and has bulbs, some as high as 1950L P25, found a couple of Westies in it too. Has top and bottom red lens, I'll get some green ones to replace. Need to find or make 4 visors for the yellows.
