Reading through an old post dated 29 December 2002 by Gerald Edgar relating to 
work trains in general and bunk cars in particular, I noticed a comment "As 
none of these MoW bunks/tools/shower were 250000 series, they were all 
converted boxcars", which started the thought processes going. 

Who was responsible for the decision to convert existing equipment to MOW usage 
and for the numbering of "new" work equipment - that is was it centralised or 
local? Presumably, there was a formal list of number batches which could be 
allocated for the different types of equipments to ensure the comformity within 
the numbering system. Has such a list be published anywhere?

TIA

Rupert
