Here is 102/19's original plate with the month and date: May 1920. I can't give an exact date for the renumbering, but this inspection report from August 1920 for #19 at least fine tunes it to within 3 months of the construction of the engines and perhaps within 2 months of their arrival. I don't know what the arrival date in Baker was, but assume it was some time in June.
