This signal lights up yellow because there's a diamond nearby. The light bracket is from L&W, but the lighthead is unknown. It could be from WCH at a first guess.

 

Note in picture 25 there's a hornet nest at the top of the light.

Note: Even though there are 2 teardrops, only one rings, as you will hear. One doesn't work, and the other is a bit weak.
