Routes predate Reporters in JMRI, and have always had the type letter 'R', so maybe its Reporters that should have a different letter.
Hmmm... I had to go back and look... the first Route implementation was introduced on June 11,2004. ?The first reporter was July 18, 2004, so yes, routes predate reporters, but only by 5 weeks.... which really means that they came about at the same time, in the grand scheme of things. ?( our release schedule wasn¡¯t the same as it is now, it would take some more digging to verify if they were introduced in the same release version or in two different, but successive, ones... )
