    MPL Trainman cap with silver trim., silver colored buttons and silver colored badge. I asked Norbert Shacklett, retired MP agent operator and conductor, the difference between the gold and silver trimmed Trainman caps and he said when he was issued his Trainman cap by the Trainmaster’s secretary Mr. Nichols in Jefferson City he was told that’s “Just how they came from the manufacturer” so there’s no difference although the Circular 4 notes that the Trainman was in silver.
