Hi lads, this was my grandfather's SER lamp. Had it since he 1st joined, stamped 1938 

It's taking a a few knocks and I don't have the skils to repair it. 

Any ony know of a person on Ireland that does repairs to these things? I need the handle the band to hold the lens in and the back of the oil Bath to be reattached.

As in South Eastern Railway in England, thus pre-1923?

Or could it be DSER, with the "D" worn away?

 

My Grandfather initially worked on the Southern from Nine Elms on Top link (signed photo from Bullied of day of  the 1st MN to leave Waterloo in my mothers house, need to locate that), Then went Barnstaple where my father was born (1945) and then moved to Erith (SE London) and was on Electrics from Waterloo so Defo SER.  Retired in Tunbridge Wells with Dementia so never got to talk to the man really. Lots of Cuneo prints handing in my Grandmothers house. all lost to time...

Bloody sisters muck that up I reckon.
