These are being offer for auction
said to be for a General of the Eisenbahn
# 1 I am not familiar with the metalilic tops ; this is not Prussian muster
the pattern is different
# 2 The " E " cypher (not shown) is without a number maybe Bavarian ?
# 3 If Bavarian they had only 1 Batl the inspector of the Eisenbahn & Telegraph held the rank of Lt. Col
the commander of the Bavarian E B held the rank of Major ; there were 40 officers in the Batl
hard to understand there would be a General ?
I only have the last rang list which also covers Bavaria
nothing else to check
# 4 The red red fabric under the epaulettes to me look like it has been resewn
# 5 the silver tressa tape is very faded
Please send feedback
Thanks
Steve
