Renumbering of Ten Y5s

[NW Mailing List]

When the first Y6 rolled out with the number 2120, it appeared that N&W planned to put all Y5's in the 2100 series. Perhaps they already anticipated rebuilding them with cast frames and roller bearings, making them the mechanical equal of the Y6's. 2092 was not included in the renumbering because it had been destroyed at Maybeury.

Is it known why ten Y5's (2090-2091 and 2093-2099) were renumbered 2010-2019?

And is it known why one engine in this sequence, the 2092, was not included in the renumbering?
