white star line item detail
Pattern description: This pattern consists of the line's house flag in red, outlined in dark brown with the line name on a banner below. A single (gold) line encircles the lower body of this particular item.
Pattern notes: It is thought that the presence of the gold line on this item indicates First Class, as identical items appear without the line, presumably for the inferior classes - not that this made much difference to the user, especially at times of urgency!
