Thanks for confirming this, andi.  I noticed there'd been this change on the box some time ago (over a year), initially in the US box I think.  I wasn't sure the change had actually happened as the later plans still showed the earlier version of the roadway.  Now it seems the change is worldwide.

Is the part number the same, I wonder?

Good point, Jochen.  I have one of these sets and have had no problems with it.  Maybe it's a matter of detail - in the real world where pipes come out from under the road there is an "arch" to take the weight and stress of traffic on the road.

i dont think was a stupid question !

I heard from the baseplate are not realy stable look at the arrows !!
Ok you think errors was the wrong word so lets talk about corrections !!  ;D

But i dont want to make a big detail discuss about playmobil corrections !
I only want to make a little collection about corrections.
I think there must be a error , why else playmobil change it !!!

more soon

gentle greets

Ah, ok. Sounds reasonable. Thank you for explanation.

Maybe I didn't got that idea because I play/handle "carefully" with my PM stuff. Heavy duty child usage may result in a totally different behaviour of material.  ;D
