3.0 YEAR OF MANUFACTURE CODE ( C5,C6) :
This will consist of last two digits of the year of manufacture. For example wagon
manufacture in 2016 will line code 16.
-------------------------------------------
4.0 INDIVIDUAL WAGON No. (C7,C8,C9,C10) :
This will he running serial number from 0001 to 0009 Numbers 0001 to 0999 will be
departmental stock and 1000 to 9999 will be for other (traffic) stock. This will be running number irrespective of year.
For departmental, after 0999, the number will begin from 0001. For others,
alter 9999, the number will begin from 1000.
The series will not change with type of wagon. For example, on ECR if 1001 is BOXNHS next wagon which may be BCNHS will be 1002.
-------------------------------------------
5.0 CHECK DIGIT — Method of calculation
The 'Check Digit' for each wagon is calculated using a six-step algorithm based on ten
digit wagon number arrived at as indicated below.
Step — 1 Starting from the left, add , all the Characters in the even position.
S1=C2+C4+C6+C8+C10
Step — 2 Multiply the sum by 3 to get 3S1
Step — 3 Starting from the left, add all the Characters in the odd position.
S2=C1+C3+C5+C7+C9
Step — 4 Add the sum of step 2 to the sum of step 3 to get S4=3S1+S2
Step — 5 Round this total up to the next multiple of 10.
Step — 6 The check digit is the number required to be added to round up to the next
multiple of 10.
