Who makes the numbers?

On western roads it was customary to have changeble number boards to reflect the train number, or "X" with the engine number for an extra. To the best of my knowledge the rest of raildom just had the engine number on the front with only the lead locomotive's boards illuminated. Metra Electric uses changeble numbers on the front and rear of their MUs. May I add that "western roads" is defined as SP,UP,and SN. <br />Mitch
