    Hi there, I have had this hat since I was a child and added some Royal Engineers badges and buttons on the side to make it look nice but cannot remember where I got it from or what it is. It clearly isn't a royal engineers hat, and I seem to remember it might be from the railway but have no clue and have given up on google. Does anyone out there have any ideas?
    Thanks, the mad hatter.

      A photo of the inside and side buttons may be helpful.

      The style of it is similar to hats from the very late 19th/ early 20th century.

      Hi Scott, thanks for your reply. The original buttons are missing and I replaced them withRoual Engineers buttons.

      I'll add a picture of the inside.

      Thanks,

      Graham
