I don't use Freightmaster myself so may be wrong but I think numbers are only there if users have seen and reported them. If nobody says "I saw loco XXX on service YYY" then it cannot display.

I think!

As far as I can tell, the OP is referring to my 'Realtime Maps', which utilise the Railcam system
whereby a user can click on the headcode of any train (passenger or freight) to bring up full
schedule details including operator and in addition, in some cases, a loco number may also
be shown, but the latter feature relies entirely on Railcam users manually inputting the data;
there is no direct feed from TOPS, I'm afraid!!
