[Rhodes22-list] hull numbers was Jenny Tracks

[Todd Tavares]

   Is the A84 acutally part of the hull ID number as far as registration purpose goes?  Can there be a  GBX220139A84 and a GBX220139M85? .....the same number except for the month and year of mfg?  Does the  220139 part of the number ever repeat or are the hull numbers all sequential?  Maybe this is a question that only Stan can answer.
