my number is 1474 build by M.B. Wild. and the war dep.nr is T136474 the last 3 are the same as the chassis number. it might be of any help.

Part of contract T/M11245 with M B Wild.

156 TPC No1 Mk 2 T136016-T136171
814 TT No1 Mk2 T136172-T136985

I wonder if they started with chassis number 1016? Seems unlikely but presumably the contracts were issued with WD numbers on them so it's possible.

Maybe just a coincidence....

May be they started at 5000?....... How did you get 1016? ( May be I'm mathematically challenged?)

Well perhaps but I meant 5016 as Pauls chassis number is 5000 behind the last four of the WD number and Wild started with (13)6016 that would equate to 5016 to maintain the tie up......It was early, my brain hadn't fully warmed up....
However, I suspect it is coincidence. You would need a sample over a range to know for sure.
