This lot features a vintage Railtrack high-visibility work vest and an associated leather signalling equipment pouch. The sleeveless vest is constructed from orange high-visibility synthetic fabric, detailed with two horizontal silver reflective bands and a front zip closure. The black block-lettered name RAILTRACK is printed across the back, with a corresponding smaller patch located on the left chest. The associated brown leather pouch is designed for handheld danger flags, featuring a single strap with a brass-toned buckle. The front flap is stamped with the words SIGNAL BY HAND and DANGER FLAGS. The pouch is attached to a heavily worn and frayed textile shoulder strap. The items are presented on a hanger marked with the Tu brand.
