Default Maybe a spanner in the works!

Lynn we are always very late in Scotland!! But just wait until you read this next bit and you may think how much later can we get!! lol

Scout T5329 minus starting Contract No. T5255 = 74. Add this to starting Reg.No. RMY609 you get RMY 683.

Armoured Machine Gun T1830 minus starting Contract No. T1828 = 2. Add this to starting Reg.No. CMM984 and you get CMM986. T1830 with reg.no.CMM986 was converted to Cavalry Carrier.

Armoured Maxchine Gun T1833 minus starting Contract No. T1828 = 5. Add this to starting Reg.No. CMM984 and you get CMM989. T1833 with reg.no.CMM989 was a pilot model used with machine gun shield.

There are several more like this which is why I "suggested" about the Scout. Presumably in the example of the Scout, it is the 75th vehicle but in relating it to the registration number you use 74 because the reg.no. also includes an "extra" vehicle!!

My head is hurting already! Now you know why I stay clear of quoting exact numbers etc.!
