From 1989, but prior to December 20, 2010, trains were numbered differently. A system of 4-digit numbers was used for all long-distance passenger trains, while local (intra-zone) trains, suburban services, etc., had numbering schemes that varied widely.
Before 1989, trains had numbers that were allotted by their respective zonal railways (and much before, by the independent railway companies). These numbers were usually simply sequential, starting from 1 and working up through 1-digit, 2-digit, and 3-digit numbers. These were not necessarily unique across the zones. E.g., 31 Down on WR was the Kutch Exp. and 31 Down on CR was the Hyderabad Exp.; both reached Mumbai — situations like this caused considerable confusion. Local (intra-zone and suburban) services had varied schemes including alphanumeric codes for trains, a situation which persisted after 1989 as well. See more on this in the section on old train numbers.

Around Nov. 2003, there was some speculation on IRFCA as to whether 5-digit train numbers would soon be introduced, especially with several new zones coming into being. No official announcement was made then. However, the IRCTC and other official web sites did occasionally show some trains with 5-digit numbers, such as the Kakinada-Bangalore Sheshadri Exp. being shown as ‘07009’ instead of ‘7009’. However, it was noted that searching for the 5-digit number’s route or scheduled information did not yield results in any publicly available system. It is likely that these were early experiments by IR in preparation for the eventual launch of the 5-digit system that happened in 2010.
