GNR Green (remarkably like LNER Doncaster Green)
LNER Wartime Black


For numbers, I think they might be including preservation-era renumberings.
For normal service, I can come up with:

GNR
LNER 1924
LNER 1946 (possibly two: Thompson start to re-number then changed his mind, so some Pacifics received two or had two allocated during the 1940s)
BR

So that's four or five normal-service numbers.
