Continuation of BigLobe Plarail Museum

Because of his collection, our database was filled to 93%. Many of the G-nn, MS-nn numbers, JAN codes, bar codes are recorded. The real challenge now is to find the rest of the 7%, confirm the existence of Chitose Airport Set, find unrecorded phantom gems and match the sets and other possible codes. For example, it is found that a yellow EC box DD-51 with code MS-28 and a DD-51 with code MS-30 have a difference in the switch length. So we believe that a Salon Car can have the numbers of N-33, N-34, N-35, and TT-36. (TT-36 is confirmed, which is 1987). As the Salon Car was manufactured from 1984 to 1987, we can identify if the Salon Car was “really” manufactured for 4 years instead of 2 or 3 years. If for some reason the N-34 and N-35 numbers are not found to be printed on the box, we can safely assume at this time that TOMY did not manufacture the Salon Car during 1985 and 1986 (effectively 2 years of no manufacture). This means that the Salon Car was available (by reusing existing stock), but not manufactured for 4 years. It will be hard to find each and every code, but that is what a research team and database is for right? LOL.

Something like that. But probably best moved into the Verification of Phantom Gems thread that I created a few months ago.
