coach / carriage number
Explanation:
Strictly speaking, 'rijtuigbak' apparently refers to the superstructure of a rail coach or carriage (in instructions for assembling model train carriages, a distinction is made between the bak, the onderstel and the draiistellen). By extension it means the body of a coach or carriage (excluding the bogies), and by even further extension a complete coach or carriage.

vehicle number


Explanation:
Sounds like the vehicle number judging by this definition I found:

-> "Bak = spoorjargon voor rijtuig. Het woord ‘bak’ is volstrekt neutraal en heeft dus niets te maken met de soms uitgewoonde toestand van de rijtuigen. Niet te verwarren met treinstel of wagon."
