Re: The Increased Presence of 6xxx Series R46's on Q, N and W Trains

Don't forget that the R46s were all renumbered (not in order) in 1994-95, so some of today's 6xxx series started out with lower numbers than some of today's 5xxx series.

Example:
1220 ---> 5984
536 -----> 6042

R46 Renumbering


That's very interesting and suggests a possible explanation for the mixing of 5000 & 6000 cars. Could it be that the mixing of the renumbered cars is governed by regrouping of cars by their car numbers? I will have to do some field research to see if this is the underlying explanation.
