Freight and crane uses three 28 stud reds for the locomotive and both long

A 24 stud wagon plate appears in blue in 4555. I can't recall off hand if • it
has the 2x4 ridge you refer to but would bet it is the same part.

So, it did have a new piece in, after all...

Maybe. But I doubt it. New color for an existing piece, perhaps. But that
volume and price point is hard to hit if tooling costs for that large a
piece have to be amortized. Or so I speculate.

The black 6x24 wagon plate also appeared in 2126
(http://guide.lugnet.com/set/2126).
