| Some Hudsons
carried their msn (or part thereof) stencilled on the nose. Some carried
the full four digit msn, while others carried the last two digits of
the msn preceeded by a 1, 2 or 3. The reason for this is unknown. Many
carried no nose number at all. Known nose numbers are shown in the following
table. To these known numbers should be added 285 and 6046 which are
believed to have been carried by A16-34 and A16-117 respectively, although
no proof of the tie-up is available. One oddity is A16-76 on which was
painted the number 327 in larger, lighter digits than usual. It should
be noted that A16-76 is the only known example where a nose number does
not correspond with an msn (1929).
