Eric,

Never seen one like this, nice find...

thanks dean--yes, they are scarce, which is surprising, given the importance of the railway system during ww1. one would think that more of them would have been awarded (or made available for purchase).

perhaps this particular veteran's organization did not fare so well during the 30s?
