    I am looking for the following items to swell my collection of railway uniforms relating to the Eastern regions. If you could help me source any of the items listed below please do contact me.

    LNER:
    Waistcoat
    Hat, preferably for guard/porter
    Overcoat
    Trousers
    Guard equipment bag

    BR:
    Double breasted jacket
    Trousers
    Hat, preferably for guard/porter
    'Guard' cap badge

    However, as I will need to wear the uniforms they do need to fall within certain size boundaries:
    Jackets/waistcoats: 36"/38" breast
    Trousers: 30"/32" waist
    Hats: 7 3/8" or 7 1/2"

    Thanks in anticipation.

    By your location I'm guessing you are/going to be Volunteering at the NVR?
    I can help with Replica LNER Fisheye embroided badges and Job titles.
    Will upload some shots latter when I get home for you to view.
    Regards Matt

    Most of my uniforms are ASDA George with period buttons and replica badges.
    Caps from HOPS or Longleat.
    My period longsleeve waist coat is a genuine given to me by a friend.

    The high waisted trousers are from a site called 19th Century Tailoring http://www.sutlers.co.uk/acatalog/vict.html
    I also purchased an Arizona waist coat

    I have a double breasted jacket, which is a Royal Navy No2 Jacket with BR buttons, although it now has LNER fisheye and buttons having been given a Genuine Single breasted BR jacket:

    Some images of the Replica LNER fisheyes I've had done.
    My Guards Cap:

    My Inspectors cap:

    I can also provide the earlier simple badge.
