Hi Ed,

This reminds me:

Milwaukee had two D-23s...a dump car on the city division and a line car on 
the interurban division. Plus line car D-23 swapped numbers with line car 
D-21 (long story.) One of the "D-23" line cars is still in use at East Troy.

Plus they had buses and streetcars sharing the same numbers at the same 
time.

I wonder if the dual numbering ever caused them any grief?

K.
