I posted this on another board and we've had fun with it, but not many answers! Any narrow gauge?

I got to thinking about this last night, and came up blank!

How many engines were numbered (by coincidence) the same as their wheel arrangement?
Such as;

4-4-0 No. 440
2-8-0 No. 280
4-8-4 No. 484
etc.

There must have been some, but the real question, for Russo, were any of them also green?
Steve
