Good Afternoon All
My grandfather's occupation is listed as 'number taker' on the National Union of Railwaymen records from 1917.
Please could someone tell me what work was carried out by a number taker?
Many thanks.
Best Wishes

Good Afternoon
Please could someone identify the uniform of the young man at the back of the photo attached?
My grandfather was a railway porter and a boy rating in the Royal Navy during WWI and I'm just wondering which uniform he is wearing in the photo?
Many thanks.
Good Afternoon
Please could someone tell me where to look for railway company occupational records for my grandfather who was a railway porter pre/during WWI?
(I've had no luck so far on Ancestry).
I presume he worked at Banbury Railway Station but this may not be the case.
Many thanks.
