No, but Victoria do.  I can't recall NSW ever renumbering interstate trains,
with the exception of WL-1, WL-2, WL-3 & WL-4.  These are -SA8 & -AS8 with the
first character being the day of departure.   The old 3196 became (IIRC) -MS4.
Victoria changes ST-1 to something like 8902 (not sure - they're wierd down
there)  :-)
