RGS #20 for sure!!
On the D&S, painted up for a few weeks as she was for the filming of "A Ticket to Tomahawk" (in 1949?), then as F&CC #20, and finally - and more-or-less permanently - repainted as she was in the waning years of the RGS.
She has been one of my favorites since shortly after I learned to talk, when I was about 12 or 15 ...
I just got a copy of "A Ticket to Tomahawk" a few weeks ago, and - while most of the movie is pretty mediocre - it's worth every penny just for the introduction of "Tomahawk and Western #1" for a minute or two following the titles.

p.s. Marilyn Monroe is in the movie, as one of four "dance hall" girls. It's so early in her career that she isn't even listed in the credits!
