 I'm confused. Don't you mean 20 Rebecca and 17 Reedsdale? If this was changed around at one time or another, perhaps someone could fill me in. Especially now that it's in the front of your brain Fred. Thanks!

Thanks Jim.

Somewhere I probably read this before ... perhaps in Sefan Lorant's  
book in the chronology ... but this makes it all clear why the 20  
REEDSDALE car line was so late in happening and why the 17 was  
created.   The 17 was the remnant of the older 20 after the  
Manchester Bridge opened in 1913 and the 20 cars could now use the  
bridge.   It all makes sense.   I know I had it figured out before  
but this brought it back to the front of the brain.
