Joe: It's because it's really, really, hard to decal those tiny little numberboards and have them turn out good... We had originally planned to number the fleet by the locomotive's horsepower, and 1701 (now retired) was numbered that way, as a GP9 (1750 HP) downrated to 1700 HP to fit with the GP7s. But that unit didn't have (and still doesn't have) printed numberboards. The rest of my fleet does, so I'm sticking with the numbers printed on the numberboards...
