(...) That's actually a different staircase... the open-riser one in 6761 is fairly new. The solid staircase, which is the same kind of style as the spiral one in the Time Train, shows up in <set: 6082>, and you can see it in this picture: (URL) not (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)
