"29/30 in 1944 TT not 1/2"Attached is a scan from the 1944 Bradshaw - Notice Malabar express is numbered "13/14" and Blue Mountain express is numbered 45/50. (No, this is not an error, it was indeed numbered like this. You can confirm this through the IRFCA forums as well). 29/30 is the number of a different train introduced between Calicut and Ernakulam that was renamed as 'Malabar express'. In 1955 TT (from IRFCA - click here )Blue Mountain is renamed as Nilagiri express and renumbered as 545/546. Malabar express is renamed as Mangalore express and is renumbered as 513/514.

"You may change name but Number]"There was no such rule, sir. Different railway companies followed different numbering schemes. Even after independence, before introduction of the 4 digit numbering, trains often had different numbers on different zones. (This was standardized in the 1960s).Punjab mail was 5/6 in CR and 37/38 in NR. Pathankot express (present day 11057/58) was 197/198 on CR and 57/58 on NR.Similarly, before independence too trains changed numbers on different railway networks. Punjab mail was 5/6 on GIPR and 3/4 on NWR (85/86 in later years). Attached are timetables from 1918 for the Amritsar-Delhi and Delhi- Bombay routes. Note...
