Two oddball CFRs that you will run into will be replacement CFRs and locally procured/manufactured trailers.

If a plate is lost or stolen, the truck was supposed to be assigned a new CFR. It didn't appen very often, usually guys would just go to transport and they would sticky up a new one. But if the missing plate problem made it to major equipment section, then you were looking at a vehicle whose plate would be way out of sequence.

Locally procured or manufactured trailers would have a plate which would be the UIC of the base and a digit. For instance, the first such trailer in Wpg would be 01171, the second one would be 01172, etc. Not sure what they did on the tenth trailer as you were out of space for the numbers.
