I used to know people who worked on the railroad.  One day I asked about their lanterns and he said that everyone uses Maglites now.  That seemed weird because the lanterns had a handle that didn't need a hand to hold (i.e. on the wrist, etc.).

He explained that because Maglite had a policy of "you break it, we replace it for free" it became the light of choice on the railroad - even if it did take a hand to use it.
