And to think that I always regarded Edinburgh's tram numbering as chaotic!
There a new tram usually took the number of the replaced tram -- but not
always! Also, when an older car was fitted with a new top cover, and the
car was subsequently replaced, the "recent" top cover was reused and the
fleet number went with the top cover. It's a study in its own right!!
