The number it carries is the next one in sequence, the British Railways ones went up to 90774.

Hi John,
3672 'Dame Vera Lynn' is still at the NYMR; 90775 is a different member of the class & is now at the North Norfolk Railway. 90775 was first preserved at the Mid Hants Railway, running in Longmoor Military Railway livery as 601 'Sturdee' before moving to the NYMR for a time and then to the NNR.
Incidentally, both of these locos were repatriated from Greece for preservation in the early 1980s.
