Did these units have road numbers on the cab roof? If so, how were the numbers oriented?

Also, the same question of the lone SW900 repainted from the green and yellow to the final all green?

MP-15's did not have roof numbers. only the SW-1001's and GP-40-2's came from the factory painted that way. 1519, the first green repaint did nave roof numbers. Bob Gottschall's "Green Machines" book is the best source for the roof number info.
