Additional information by Sydney Trains:

Lists the names of Honeysuckle Point Locoworks railways employees who served in WWI written in gilt in two columns, encased behind a glass pane.

It is decorated with crossed Union Jack and Australian flags above, and a wooden scroll with the words "Greater Love Hath No Man Than This, That A Man Lay Down His Life For His Friends" attached below.

It was unveiled by the Mayor of Newcastle Mr Kilgour on Empire Day 24/05/1915, and it originally contained ten names which grew to 44 at the end of the war (NSW Railway & Tramways 2/06/1919).

It was originally displayed at the Honeysuckle Point Locoworks. After its closure, the board was relocated to Newcastle Station in c1930 where it hung for many years on the platform.

After Newcastle Station was closed in 2014, the board was removed by Sydney Trains and relocated to storage at Hamilton Depot.
