Can you read what day (under the stamp) in March 1944 he got it?Hi Rick,It?s the 25th. Also, I did not mention it before, but it almost appears that the ?8?s? in the serial number are upside down. See below.Best wishes,Wild Card Edited December 5, 2005 by Wild Card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Nice to find with original screwdisks-- Moscow Artists Collaborative and the 1946+ Ministry (MPS) rather than pre-1946 NKPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hauptmann Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Hi all, Realized this one has been pretty quiet for a good long while. Has anyone added anything new to their Soviet railroad collections? If so please post. I'm hoping to add more but at the moment I'm just hoping to see more examples and perhaps more information on this area of collecting. I've always loved and been fascinated by trains. Didn't take my first trip until just a few years ago and absolutely loved it! Have now taken several train trips, a couple of them in the sleeper which in the U.S. is considered 1st Class but I'm sure it rates far below the standard of English and European 1st Class train travel. Kim and I would love to take a long train trip some day as well as be able to travel in Europe. But for now this part of my collection along with some U.S. material, some Lionel O, HO and N scale trains will have to do. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauptmann Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 (edited) Okay folks... been super quiet here for ages and finally managed to get one: Dan :cheers: Edited January 31, 2012 by Hauptmann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hauptmann Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Mucho thanks Greg! :jumping: It'll be a bit before it arrives as it's coming from Estonia. Pics are the sellers by the way. Can't wait to see it in person... it will be the first I've actually been able to hold in my hand and not just see in pics. Dan :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hauptmann Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Received a few belated birthday presents and wanted to share. They're on the way so will redo some of the pics and repost once I have them in hand. First, an Honored Railway Employee Badge... I believe WW2 period: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hauptmann Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Another which I'm thinking is also WW2 but later than the above. Came with the Shockworker badge: Nice as it includes the screwback protector... not sure if the first one has that or not: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauptmann Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Now an Excellence in Socialist Competition on the Railways... first of two... what I believe is a fairly low number but I've not been able to find a ton of into on these. This one needs some TLC but I like it: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauptmann Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 And this one... with a slightly lower number and IMHOP pretty close to mint condition: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauptmann Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 These have been a loooooong time coming but so happy to finally be able to add them to my Soviet RR collection. As always comments are welcome. Need to get some activity going on this thread again so hoping this will give it a jump start.

Hauptmann Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 No one in to these anymore? I'm hearing the crickets chirp! Hoping someone shows up. I've been wondering... as far as these RR awards but also other non-military numbered awards... are there archives for these where one can possibly find info on the awardees, etc., as with military awards? I've never heard of same but keeping my fingers crossed. I know that the labor awards are not researcheable... rather suspect this is the case here too but until I know for sure I'll keep hoping. I'm always keeping my eye out for award booklets in the hope of finding one to match an award I have. I know of the site where SN's can be entered for various awards in the hope of reuniting them with larger groups and docs... but again I don't know of any for awards like the RR or other SN'd awards as in the areas of agriculture, engineering, etc. If anyone knows of any or whether such archives exist and are or might some day be opened for research I'd love to know. The double set of the Honored and the Shockworker badges arrived today and are even better than I could have imagined. I can't wait for the rest to arrive.. I was also quite surprised at one last present... the last one I realistically think I'll be able to add to the set other than any duplicates that turn up on what I already have.

Hauptmann Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Needless to say, if ya'll would be willing to check any orphaned docs you have to see if any SN's match any of the awards I have I'd be most grateful as I'm always in the hopes of reuniting awards and their documents and most importantly their history. Many thanks! Dan :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauptmann Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 What I'm assuming was the last type of the Excellence in Socialist Competition on the Railways. Really got tinny looking in the end but nice that the engine was applied as a separate piece which I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
