Road Number and City Name on MTH 20-97444 100-Ton Alberta (blue) Hoppers from 2001v3

@MTH or anyone else with the subject car,

The new MTH website is missing the usual road numbers for the 20-97444 Alberta hopper from the 2001v3 catalog. The catalog states the car came in two road numbers as is normal for Premier cars. I found in Steven Glynn's "MTH Product Reference Guide" that the two road numbers were reported as 628373 and 628520. Now, the catalog and website car illustration show ALPX 628373 with "Medicine Hat" as the named city. However, I've seen one 20-97444 car on the auction site with a photo showing the ALPX628520 car with "Medicine Hat" on it.

So, my question is which City Name is actually on the 628373 car? Or did MTH put "Medicine Hat" on both cars and just adjust the road numbers in production (stranger things have happened)?

Does anyone have the 628373 Alberta car that can confirm the accompanying city name? Any photos you could provide here would be appreciated too

Thanks.
