Is this even Reichsbahn, or is it Bundesbahn or ? "Volksbahn"? Patch is quite large, almost as big as a navy Petty Officer rating, dark mustard yellow embroidered on black wool. Apparently the round shape has been pulled out of shape by wear, since this was removed from a tunic.
All I've ever seen engineers and firemen wearing were grubby civilian clothes, never a uniform...
Out of the TEN Reichsbahn specialty patches, I could find EIGHT illustrated, but this wasn't one of them!
IF Reichsbahn, is it an Engine Driver's, or for some sort of engine repair shop technician? I have a WW1-2 group of military papers and award documents to a locomotive driver, and will keep this if that's what this is, for display.
