I've seen an Erie example.  There is a local antique dealer
that has one from the Meadville passenger station, he showed 
it to me when I was in there checking out his lanterns.
It was cast metal (brass?) with the diamond logo w/ Erie
in the center, and some fancy work around it, iirc.
He didn't put a price on it, he's "not sure what it's worth"
(read as "I don't want to undercharge anyone!!).  I'll have 
to check back and see if it's still there.
