A former soldier from Huddersfield is among many honoured at a unique military museum.
And now museum officials want to trace his family to see if they can help put together more details about him.
Sapper William Henry Good served with the 164 Railway Operating Company Royal Engineers.
He died in 1943 and his name is part of a Roll of Honour at The Engine House Visitor Centre at Highley on the Severn Valley Railway in Shropshire.
It sits alongside a refurbished locomotive which is the official war memorial for servicemen of the Royal Engineers Corps of Railway Transportation who died during the Second World War.
The locomotive was built in 1940 as part of a War Department order for service in France.
After France, the engine saw service in what was then Persia, staffed by the railway sappers and was derailed in the desert after a collision with a camel.
It was returned to the UK in 1952 and ran on lines in Scotland and the northwest of England for 11 years.
It became a war memorial in 1986.
John Pedder is a director and trustee of the Stanier 8F Locomotive Society, who own the locomotive.
He said: ”It’s the official railwaymen’s war memorial and is on display at Highley alongside a Roll of Honour listing the casualties suffered by the Royal Engineers in World War II.
“Earlier this year a lady from Huddersfield, Mrs Linda Edwards, visited the Engine House and left a message in the visitor’s book saying how pleased she was to find her father’s name on the Roll of Honour.
“Sapper William Henry Good died in 1943 and is buried in Edgerton Cemetery.
“Our society takes its role as custodian of the Memorial Locomotive very seriously and we would like to contact Mrs Edwards to see if we can supply any more information about the Roll of Honour and its dedication”
