Item Description
Items are 2.25 to 3" tall with silver luster nickel plating. First with spread wing eagle across the top of the badge includes small logo at center and "Baltimore & Ohio R.R." Reverse has pointed prong behind tip of each wing with center having a threaded post with screw cap. This seems to be the earliest of the B&O items. Second is large heavy star shape with flat reverse stamped with serial number "44". Third is an embossed shell with serial number "766" on reverse. Fourth is shield naming "Baltimore & Ohio South Western Railway/Police." Tiniest loss of some black lettering. Last has same design as the third item but this also is for "Baltimore & Ohio Southwestern RR". VF to NM. We estimate these span the 1920s-1950s.
