I will say it was an airport fuel pump. The second light would be a flashing light to draw attention to the pump.

That is a good theory but it was to denote the operation of marine service units. Paul www.severngaspumps.com

I am sure they used the light for many applications.

Apparently this one was from a very small private " Air Plane Patch", in lower Virginia.
