Every list I've seen lists the Nebula class USS Farragut as NCC-60591. But take a look at this picture. It's from the TNG movie sketchbook, in the Generations section.
The full picture, showing two ILM guys touching up the model, is here.

I believe, Yes. Also, the blue transport carries the registry of the USS Farrugut. The registry, on the left aft of the transport, is NCC-60597.

Look at the Starfleet logo on that thing - its the Movie (TOS) era version - not the TNG or DS9/Voy version...

Maybe they accidentally painted a 1 on the dorsal section and a 7 on the side, hence the confusion.

I believe, the numeral seven is visible on the dorsal in the film "Generations".

Andrew, the Nebula class was not around during the TOS era. It was created somewhere between ST6 and ST7, possibly just after the Ambassador was commissioned. They were using the old logos/uniforms back then, so it's logical that they put them on the Nebula class.

WHA!?! - The Nebula is around the 60000's and the 70000's It should have a TNG arrow head - not the arrowheads from the TOS movies.
most ships get the paint job for the time frame i.e. the Malinche or the Excelsior Refit from Homefront/Paradise Lost

And I'd never noticed that the Nebula had windows in that wedge thing between the pylon and the nacelle. Whaddaya suppose is in there?

I don't remember any image showing a "60591". The logo of the movie era is a circle, the TNG logo is elliptical. That's the only difference.
I don't know what;s in the pylon, might be some monitoring room. Of course, I used a pylon design similar to this in my Titan class design, and I stuck a rear facing torpedo launcher in that area, since it's the same shape as the Nebbies

Maybe we should start a thread listing all starships with conflicting registries.

My "Stuff We Don't Agree On" thread is for exactly that, actually.

Sol: Everyone thoguht it was 60591? It shows that no one reads my ship list due to its extreme size.
Andrew: I (read we) discovered that at SFCR.
