This shows a typical mix of different periods of insignia,regs did not seem to be strictly enforced in the Reichsbahn.Here are a couple of Reichsbahn fellows wearing the Wiemar/prewar tunics and tabs and Deutsche Wehrmacht armbands.The fellow in the middle is wearing Pay group 5 and higher collar tabs,but no shoulder boards.He is wearing the passant that were used foe a very short time.For a lo at some and info use the link.

It is rare to see photos of the Passants in wear.  Most were discarded after the insignia change.

I misspoke in my previous post,as I get older my brain gets softer😉 I went forth and dug out mt file and here are the fact of the passant.July 3, 1941 the passants were introduced instead of the old form shoulder boards. Later in November 1943 the old shoulder boards were re-introduced again. The passants were hardly able to be delivered
 and for that reason the shoulder-straps came back.
