MTL 6178(TTC 538T), 6179(TTC 539T), 6180(TTC 540T), 6186(WGY 586S), 6187(WGY 587S), 6190(OHW 490R), 6192(OHW 492R) and 6197(NFB 597R).

Hope this helps
6013 - 6093 were not original MTL Stock and these would have been brought in, the SKF's were but cant remember the last one of these but they went up to at least SKF 28T (6028 the fleet number). The original 6087-6093 would have been VBG 87V - 93V. I have a feeling that 5209 & 5223 might have ended up with CMT, if not they certainly had one or two of those batches, maybe somebody else may to be able to confirm.
