Re: [BRHSlist] OS - Was Suggested Reading

And that is my point - OS is not an abbreviation for "train report", that
would be "TR".

"OS" was used decades before 1938 - so, why? (I have spent more than a few
hours looking for documentation on this, as I stated, and it is older than
people seem to realize)
