  Re: Autoroute!=Towing, right?
 
(...) My theory is that someone sometime thought the pattern looked like a tow truck lifting mechanism? (and missed the highway connotation, remember there were two entirely separate names). While we are considering a change, I'd actually like to (...) (22 years ago, 10-Sep-02, to lugnet.db.brictionary)  
 
  Re: Autoroute!=Towing, right?
 
(...) Why "Tow"? What set it came in shouldn't have any impact on how you name it. I think "Hose Reel 2 x 4 x 2 Holder with Autoroute Pattern" seems quite appropriate. --Bill. (22 years ago, 9-Sep-02, to lugnet.db.brictionary)

  Re: Autoroute!=Towing, right?
 
(...) Yeah, these are the same, and they should have the same pattern-name. How about "Autoroute Tow Logo Pattern"? (...) Right. I'm not clear why 4209p05 *is* p05, but it's not a big enough deal to do a renumber on it. (...) I dunno. Chris, what (...) (22 years ago, 9-Sep-02, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: Autoroute!=Towing, right?
 
(...) Hi Thomas, I think the patterns are the same, but the difference may perhaps be explained by the origin of each part: The first is from an early-eighties set, with the common blue background associated to the autoroute (highway, motorway, (...)

  Autoroute!=Towing, right?
 
Are the patterns on (URL) same? They look like it, but they have dramatically different names[1]: Minifig Torso with Autoroute Pattern[2] Hose Reel 2 x 4 x 2 Holder with tow logo pattern[3] The first suggests that it's a picture of a highway, while (...)

  Re: 3867 Baseplate 16 x 16 with Island Pattern
 
Thanks for this information, Klaus! (...) Ooo. There's two different parts, right there. (...) OK, so the exact placement is not important. That's good to know, in general. Steve (22 years ago, 23-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: 3867 Baseplate 16 x 16 with Island Pattern
 
No confusion needed, just sloppy work of the L.factory. I own about 25 of these plates, both the ones with full print on grey plate, and the ones with just Island print (yellow+green) on blue plate. Almost none of the plates are exactly identical, (...) (22 years ago, 23-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  Re: 3867 Baseplate 16 x 16 with Island Pattern
 
Okay, great confusion here. . . When assembling the two larger (6265 and 6260) of my four Pirate sets, I was suprised to see that TLC had used the same pattern on two 16x16 baseplates, but placed it differently. One basplate has the pattern almost a (...) (22 years ago, 23-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.db.brictionary, lugnet.pirates)
