Just a stab from memory, But i think the reg's went MNW---P, SUA---R, CWU---T, WNW---S. Cant for the life of me recollect the V reg no's. Although Halifax had a batch of NC bodied ones, Were these JUA---V. AFAIK everywhere else had Roe bodie's. (Please tell me if i'm wrong), I'm doing it from memory. |

The reason for JUM 73V not being used for Fleetline 7073, and JNW being used instead was that the West Yorkshire Police had got the number first for a panda car.
Halifax actually had 3 batches of NCME Fleetlines, 7001-5,7006-10,7067-91. Although 7001-5 were actually operated by Leeds and Kinsley (Bingleys) for quite a while.

One of the reasons for the seemingly random registrations on the earlier batches was that NCME bodied 7001-10 were ordered by Halifax and Roe bodied 7011-7026 were ordered by Huddersfield. 5 of the chassis for the Huddersfield batch were sent to NCME as Calderdale required them quickly apparently, these then being replaced by 5 of the Halifax chassis being sent to Roe. Of the later examples, the Roe bodied vehicles (7027-66 and 7092-156) appeared roughly in order, whilst the NCME ones (7067-91, which apparently originally intended to be lowheight but actually built as normal height) were delayed at the body builders and then straddled the registration year T/V.
