/></a><br />hi ernie,<br />its a Type 6RS which was mainly used in the north east, durham newcastle areas.<br />the last ones came out of service about 6 years ago shortly before Ellington Colliery closed.<br />the type 6 service kit will do and if you email when you order we will see if we can find a 6RS badge.<br />regards david<br /><br /><br /><br /> Dear Sirs<br /> I have a miners lamp that I am trying to restore to its original working condition.<br /> I am unsure of the manufacturer as there is no identification on the lamp. I do know that it was in use in a British Coal mine until the late 60s it is underground relightable and from your website it looks like a Garforth GR6s. I also note from your website there is maintenance package available for this lamp.<br /> I have attached two photographs of the lamp and hope that you may be able to help.<br /> Any help would be gratefully appreciated.<br /> Thank you<br /> Ernie Skelly.<div style=
