FG; I think your Tt is actually a Tr. Possiby a bagage train unit 8 or a train unit 4E might be Eisenbahn Rgt4. Very nice helmet by the way . You can try Picklehaubs.com for maybe a better answer. Jerry

The answer is:

Bekleidungsamt 8. Armeekorps
Trainabteilung 8
4. Eskadron
1915

1. Rheinische Train-Abteilung Nr.8, founded 21. 4. 1853, standing in Coblenz.

A nice helmet not in best, but in good condition.

Best regards

Kolibri
