In fact the L M R stock was correct as of October 1964 according to the intro, so some of those few remaining Scots and Patriots might also have bitten the dust by the time the book appeared. The photo of the 'Jubilee' featured shows the tell-tale yellow line through the cabside number, which, I suppose was the main reason why the 8Ps went first
