Reichsbahn Station Managers Visor for review.

[corby34]

Hello everybody. I'd appreciate any opinions on this visor. It does have a small nip on the top but otherwise I think it may be a good one.

Thanks in advance!

The red blinded me for a second ... what a shiny color !

The cap seems good (an early Alkero - Albert Kempf of Ronsdorf) - yet these red caps didn't have cap-cords let alone gilt ones (there were gilt/black-flecked ones for high-ranking Reichsbahnbedienstete which platform supervisors/station managers were not).

No, it is simply a duty cap for visibility so that the engineer could pick the platform supervisor out of crowd.

Thanks , interesting that the insignia is also the one used in Bahnschutz Polizei decals. Which makes sense in a way.
