I have seen 5 digit serial number Classics, i.e. GXXXXX. The G went away with New Haven.


All true, except, Classic's are no problem. They started at G1 in 1990, ended at G380000 in 2002 and merged into the original serial run at around G2500000 in 2003.

928,000 was the number at the end of 1968, before the G was added, that were available to use again WITH the G in front.
