ITEM DESCRIPTION:

While some folks think that Railroad Collecting is a thing of the past, we do not think so. These pieces of history are more popular now than ever! Image this piece attached to a dark blue wall, what a conversation piece. This two piece off white uniform was worn by the Steward who served food to passengers and also even processed payments. Comes with the original nickeled 2" badge with black enamel marked "C. M. St. P. & P. R. R. with a large 2. On the collar of the uniform is 44 C. M. St. P.& P. R. R. which stood for Chicago Milwaukee St.Paul and Pacific Rail Road. On the shoulders, there are orange epaulettes, three stars just above the cuff, and one patch on the sleeve that reads Milwaukee Road. The uniform has some very slight staining due to the serving of food, and a slight yellow tint, but it has been dry cleaned at some point. No buttons are attached, as they were transferred from uniform to uniform and used daily. The off white pants are also marked and do have some soiling from serving food along with an orange stripe down the outside leg. Very heavy material that is not seen anymore. 18671-WQP
