Seeking photos of train escort personnel

[Scotty]

Greetings

Does anyone have photos of train escort personnel they can share? I'm especially looking for photos with the "Zug- Begleitung" armband in wear.

Many thanks for your help

Hi Scotty,

is this something you're looking for? The gorget says "Zugwachabteilung". I can post a close up if you want...

Hi Wickie

Tha'ts not exactly what i'm after but it's a very nice photo so thanks for sharing.

I'm trying to find photos of personnel wearing this particular armband. I don't think I have ever come across a period photo of this armband being worn. Having said that, I'm still new to this hobby so there could be quite a few out there lol.



Cheers

Hi Scotty

Probably not what you're looking for but here's a pic of a small rail system which was used to bring out the dead and wounded at Wolchow.

You will notice a soldier at front wearing a gorget and mosquito net over his head.

He must have been there in some sort of official capacity. Train escort perhaps?

Hi Larry

Thanks for posting that image. Pity we can't see the details of the gorget, but still an interesting image.

Cheers

Came across this one today. Maybe a possibility, pity the armband is at a poor angle.
