The issue is about the parts from the group "Train Track  4.5V".

Why is it labeled "4.5V"? It works quite fine for 12V trains
too (just to make sure we get a long discussion :-).

  My 12V trains don't move when I put them on the 4.5V-only track :)

  Now seriously, maybe we could drop the "4.5" from the name and replace
it with "old" but I don't think it's going to be a good idea. Of course
we'd have to keep the current format for the cross and points as the
4.5V and 12V versions are different.

We might want to remember the 12V power tracks too.

  I'm fine with the current names but if people want to change it, why
not call them "Train Power Track 12V" or "Train Track 12V Inside" ?

Not a bad idea. What about "1st gen.", "2nd gen.", and "3rd
gen."?

  What's the 3rd generation ?
