Nope, mine is NOT an old one. Brand new. AND the red is very different....

My sister adds camping, or maybe a train to the possibilities... or a western wagon.

As I said, I think it is train related.  I shall check my train catalogues and get back.

Well, here's the answer - there is a red lantern with the Colorado Springs station, but not the mystery one.

Figured it out with the help of a fellow german collector

The lantern comes with the orange Safari Zelt from the 80 ties

This one? It looks like a chrome one in the box picture (and on Klickywelt.de Datenbank-Setinhalt)!

I´m pretty sure it is not a peeled-off chrome lantern.
Over the years, I´ve seen it several times appear on ebay (never got it though as I´m not really interested in it).

Maybe it originates from a Chrismas Calender set?  ???

It's from the large Safari-set, 3189.
