Question for the group: Which font is "Royal Enfield" written in on the gas tank?

I want to use that font to write something on a pedestrian slicer.

Thanks.

I put that in front of graphic designer and his fast guess was Windsor.  Designed in 1905 so the timing is right.  Not 100% accurate, but looks pretty close.

And he noted that the R is probably hand embellished.
