Yes, two railroads can have a car the same number. The reporting marks (i.e. NS, CSXT, UP, BNSF, etc) and/or the car type would be the delineation. If both were the same car type, for instance a box car, then it would just be the reporting marks. Every now and again two cars with the same number would end up coupled to each other. Each railroad decides how to number their own cars all within AAR computer guidelines. gdc
