You've given me some good leads here and some things to look into via the web. I'm gradually learning quite a bit about my Uncle's involvement with the Royal Engineers and their railway connections. Many thanks, Marjorie

Many thanks for the info. it's been most helpful. The "Railway Operating Division" was completely new to me, so that's an area that I can find out more about. Thanks again, Marjorie

Armed Forces / Great Western Company of Royal Engineers SR

My Uncle who worked for the Great Western Railway joined the "Great Western Company of Royal Engineers (SR)" in 1927. He had served in The Royal Welsh Fusiliers in WW1 and was then called up again in September 1939 as he was in "The Reserves" Was the Great Western Co.of Royal Engineers in any way related to the GWR Railway for whom he worked or completely separate? What does SR stand for? Any help with this appreciated. Thanks
