(...) Yes, there are two variants of this piece, one with a rectangular slot, and one with a circular. To me, the circular one seems to be more frequent, but it may just be here in Europe. I dunno. Fredrik (25 years ago, 30-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I'm not sure if I agree with that. Looking at the 8251, a 1999 set, it looks like it has a rectangular slot: (URL) then again, I haven't got the 8251, so it may very well be that the parts included have the circular hole. I dunno. Fredrik (25 years ago, 31-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
