Hi all

Thought I would share a pic of some of my latest acquisitions.

Particularly pleased with the Highland Mounted Infantry badge.

Anyone able to shed light on the Natal Government Railways badge?

Wow, that's an amazing haul of badges. Those lower ZMR badges are stunning, well done. Some real rarities there.
What is that floreate scroll badge at the bottom, TCMI?
Thanks, cheers,
Alex

The Zululand MR officers cap and collar badges are particularly pleasing and only very seldom turn up these days.

As for the NGR badge, never seen one like this before? Would also like to know.

Wonder if it stands for NGR Volunteer Fire Brigade, station/section 18? I do know they had an Ambulance section so it is possible they had a Fire Section.

Tx for the info Brian ... gives me a steer for further research.

Was very pleased to get the ZMR badges as they have eluded me for a while.
