25/03/1950 Loco renumbering anomalies No. 68370 was seen renumbered by 8/1/49 even though offical notification has only just come through. 61943 was at Neasden on 25/3/50. So far as we are aware, the transfer of 69930 to Stratford on 16/4 is interesting as being the first Q.1 to be stationed there. SLS/195006
