They used an earlier badge during the RRAdmin. Period and it was
shaped like a bell. Will try to get a picture.

Yes it was worn by Railway Mail Service employees on the train.
I have one with 32 on it.

Attached is an image of two badges from my collection. It is
my understanding that they are Post Office Department and railroad
badges for personnel handling U.S. Mail at principal terminal on
the railroad. Only authorized personnel were allowed the
handle U.S. Mail.

There’s
an interesting badge on eBay at
U.S.M BURLINGTON ROUTE 310 CONDUCTORS BADGE RAILROAD L@@K |
eBay It’s triangular but with rounded points and sides, a
Burlington Route herald in the middle with “U.S.M.” above it and
“310” below. Anyone know anything about it?

to the effect of the International Date Line, it is already New
Year’s Day in NZ, the sun is shining and this year looks better
than the last one. It could hardly look worse, could it! So happy
New Year)
