      The benzyl ring and nuts are brass nickel plated. The body is cast aluminum and polished . ring on the tail light is copper nickel plated. 
The base on most that I have had are brass but some are cast steel and nickel plated .

I have a N&W J/K Class light and was wondering if they were chromed or cast aluminum?
This is the condition as it was removed from the locomotive. Should I just leave it the way it is?
Any advise would be helpful.
