The first looks like Murray of Atholl; used by Transvaal Scottish. The second MacDuff; used of Highland and Lowland RCT I believe. Don’t know if still used.

Default Rct tartan
Have looked up 153/4 highland/lowland tartan, but it is different, although I can see why you thought it was.

You could be right, but I think the single vertical black line could be a fault or pulled thread. Take that away and I think the tartan is Macduff. I’ve looked through pattern books but could not find that exact pattern.
