Very nice set! I think 'special agent' would be the best translation of оперуполномоченный in this case.

Thank you, and especially for your refinement of the translation.  Here is Honored Railway Employee, #62382, 1946.

Hi all. I've finally managed to obtain the final Excellent Railway Badge (Signalman) to finish my set. However, this last one does not have the screw nut. I wondered if any of you might by chance happen to have a spare that you'd be willing to part with? If so, please let me know and hopefully we can work something out. Any help would be deeply appreciated.

Once I have this last one in hand I'll do pics of it as well as the entire set and post them.

Many thanks!

God bless,

Dan
