I'm already at work, I hope I can splain it to you. 4 x 6 rows of studs on
the inside. 1 studs width all the way around that is flat like a tile, then
the 1 brick high sides. The underside is just like a regular plate. The
whole thing is 6 x 8. No seams or anything, it is all 1 piece.

Are those studs on the inside or what?

Thanks!

Ah phooey, I was trying to do 2 things at once, it was a Fabuland piece like Ben said. I just got post happy. I'll take a look over on the set database to try to date and reference the other train/Fabuland parts I don't know in this lot. This gives (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.trains)
