Vermont & Massachusetts Copper Baggage Tag

Item Details

Description

A very old copper baggage tag made for the Vermont & Massachusetts Railroad. The V&M had 2 lives, one was the line west of Fitchburg out to the Hoosac Tunnel. Several things make this an older tag: (1) it's not brass (2) lettering in an arc (number on reverse (4) smaller than standard strap opening. It measures 1 3/8" in diameter. It is number 533. It has some scratches but no major issues. A very old tag indeed.
