Isn't the gray notchless version used in modern sets such as the
wildwest miningish set (bandit's hideaway?) and for overhead crane rails in
4555?

No, not if I understand your question correctly:

Before you commit the part names containing _blue_ or _grey_, I think I am
right in saying that the version without the notches exists in grey too.

I'm curious Chris, in what sets was that the case ?
And do these gray ones have those "negative" tapered ends, just like the old
blue track had ?

I agree with Chris. Putting color names in parts just seems wrong to me.

Gimme a set number for "the wildwest miningish" please.
I own set 4555, it has track with notch-accomondating holes.
I own the harbour set that has a portal crane running on tracks, here you find
notch-accomondating holes also.

I could be wrong. But I'd stump for using notched and notchless in the
name or something.

Mmm, the tracks don´t have notches, instead they have holes where the notches
of the sleepers fit in to. Are they called "slots" in English ?
