This Honour Board was hung at the North Ipswich Roundhouse to honour those members of the Engine Drivers, Firemen & Cleaners Association (later the Australian Federated Union of Locomotive Enginemen) who served during the Great War 1914-1919. The Honour Board was saved and removed to the RSL North Ipswich Branch when the locomotive depot was closed. It was later presented to Queensland Railways for their historical collection.
