Not necessarily, the alpha numeric system does not indicate whether a loco is dynamic brake equipped or not. The horsepower theory seems correct to me, another example is the renumbering of one of the AWR T classes (albeit temporarily) to 901.

I never said it was a numeric theory. I quote myself "The horsepower theory"
The T designation belongs to a completely different system, I was referring to when the loco was temporarily renumbered to just 901 (with no letter prefix).
My apoligies if the wording in my previous post caused any confusion.
