All are as marked.    I own the only known example of the switch shown in
these first two photo's and it recently got a new coat of paint two weeks
ago, with some other lawn ornaments.  I am posting a photo of it here,
since I had just posted a photo of it on *THE Delaware Lackawanna and
Western, Facebook Page, *which I would encourage anyone interested in the
Lackawanna to join*.  *The only markings on the entire switch stand is the
1903 date on the top.  I'm guessing they were forged somewhere on company
property, ( possibly E Dover ) but have never been able to confirm. If
anyone knows anything at all about this switch stand, that has appeared
hundreds of times in these photos, please  let me know.   They all had an
eight sided open handle, and the top came off via four nuts.
