Coach 2 parts numbering system
I have designated the Makaha end of the coach as the "A" end and the Dimondhead end as the "B" end.
To help locate where the individual pieces came from I have divided up the car into "frames" much like a ship is divided up by the frames used to support the hull.
Frame 1 is at the "A" end door.
Decimal numbers designate the side and the part is located on and it differentiates from multiple pieces of the same type. As you stand inside the car facing the "A" end the odd numbers are to your left and even numbers are to the right.
Piece numbers are comprised of a letter to designate what the part is, followed by a number to designate the frame it is (was) located in, followed by a decimal number and maybe a sub piece letter.
An example would be a window frame part. The number may look something like this: WF10.1A
The WF designated this as a Window Frame. The window starts at the 10 Th frame and is located on the left side of the car. There are four parts to this frame and this part is part A of that frame.
Assembly numbers are circled. If the letter "A" or "B" are used to designate the "A" or "B" end of the car the letter will be in prentices.
For example the "A" end door will be designated as D(A). This will be circled to differentiate the assembly number from the doorframe part number it is written on.
