Title: Question about letters
Post by: ccaranna on February 27, 2006, 11:49:41 AM
Hey guys,

What does the small letter after a road number on pre-NS Southern units signify?  For example, in this photo what is the "K" for?

Got it, thanks!  That's an interesting check method they had there.  Takes some time to get used to, but it works.
