Default anodised Royal Corps of Transport on Yellow Diamond

I recently acquired these 3 RCT badges. Two came with Douglas Tartan backings and another with a yellow cloth backing in a diamond shape. I knew that the one on the top left with the square tartan was 154 Lowland Regiment RCT (Vols) and the one on the right with the tartan on its point was 153 Highland Regiment RCT (Vols), but I was clueless about the one with the yellow backing.

I immediately assumed it was something to do with Lancashire. I thought possibly a Lancashire RCT Volunteer outfit. I didn't have my 'Army Waggoners' book to hand so I checked out those albums on here that had a focus on the RCT, but still couldn't find it.

However, I did eventually find the answer. Not surprisingly it has absolutely nothing to do with Lancashire, but is a pipers badge also of the 153 Highland Regiment.

I didn't think for one minute of pipers. Anyway I thought it worth sharing in case anybody else comes across one.
