This minor contretemps got me thinking: 5 and even 6 digit loco numbers are common in Europe and Asia, with the first two digits usually being the engine class. Did any railroad in North America ever follow this practice? In my experience, five digit numbers were usually reserved for MoW equipment (such as on the Pennsy, et cetera)...
