Very nice cap, not easily obtained these days and in outstanding condition. Is it a Clemen's Wagner visor? Cheers, Ryan S

To be honest I have only seen one other Bahnschutpolizei officers' visor, and it was a forum member. I know they are rare, it seems like this type visor is VERY rare? Your thoughts.........

It is made by Clemen's Wagner. I have owned many TR visors and this one is the heaviest, best made I have ever handled!

Well done partner !
This is my favorite visor.
Now, you'll need the dagger to go along with visor. Wink

Pat very nice, yes I do need the dagger! I noticed your visor has a pepperd chin cord. Does this mean anything?

Wouldn't mind having either one in my display case,outstanding.They look like an Army but for the winged wheel,another reason I feel there was a First R.R. dagger.Same as the Army but for the black grip. Cool

Hope I'm not intruding here ..but , at some point I bet the Bahnschutpolizei used the same system the early Black Teno Uniforms had ..solid silver with black "Fleks" to signify Officers ..and solid Black with Silver "Fleks" to signify NCO/Enlisted ...here's my Teno NCO Visor --

Beautiful displays guys.I wish there was more info about Bahnshutzpolizei avalible.One of the local dealers keeps telling me he is writing a book on this organization but never seems to get it finished.
Here's the only items I have.

Gary, this is the first officers greatcoat I've seen,looks to be in perfect condition.I would say the sleave eagle is a nicer design than the SS officers.Thanks for showing it.

the only Bzp cap to have the flecks on the chinstrap were worn by Oberzugf�hrer along with a portepee to match.Anyone got a photo of the (rear view) evening short jacket with tails (diplomat) not the angolia one as it is too dark

Thanks for the info, I didn't know about the meaning of the black and white chinstrap.
