- Each is supposed to have a number stamped on a plate on the right rear panel between 1 and about 3149. Four were brought in specially with non-standard colors and at least one didn't have it's number stamped on it. Numbers 1 to 10 were marked as LRNA/1 to LRNA/10 (exception #8 was just #8). A few numbers were never issued.
