92 Engine, not on the old assignment card at all.  Not to respond, nor relocate.

Seems weird.  I guess they handled all the other boxes that came in til the relocators arrived.

This card was from a time when those in charge of making assignment cards took into account many factors like workload, etc. over distance. You can see that E94 gets in before E50 but L19 is in before L48. Before E85/L59 & L58 were shoe-horned in, E92 would've been 2nd or 3rd due on the 2nd alarm and the trucks would've been 31, 42, 19, 48, 44 & 17. Before 1975, L33, L38 or L41 would've relocated to L31, not L47.
