Getting back to a 11day old question with some info and some speculation: (...) While talking about the changes in the 10000 Guarded Inn, the impression I got was that he considered those changes as less than minor. So I'm expecting the Metroliner (...)

(...) This incorrectly named and spelled piece ("Train catenary holder" but I can't remember the exact incorrect spelling used) was in production for ResQ sets (where it is used as a light bar) so that means as recently as 1999, or maybe even 2000, (...)

(...) Which ResQ set has the piece? I don't recall seeing it. The good thing is the box art clearly shows the piece, so that isn't one of the "minor changes", though I guess the box art might be wrong which would be a real bummer. (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.trains)
