Title: Packaging and insert part numbers
Post by: Tiermann on April 19, 2019, 22:36:38
Hi, creating a thread for packaging and insert part number information so it can be found easily.
here is a nice obscure one for you Heather.
The styrofoam box bottom for 4029 Steam Freight Train Set (USA) has a number impressed into it underneath. It is 30 91 038
Wanted to post this since I just tossed a badly damaged box bottom but noticed this as I was doing so.

Thanks Tim. Approximate dimensions?

I have very little info on 4026 - Freight Train (https://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showinv.pl?setnum=4026), it seems - only the pic I have, which I think is a side-panel, and a small picture in the Collector book, not even a date. 30 91 038 is very close to 30 91 0590 - Set box back/bottom (unprinted) for 3224 (https://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showpart.pl?partnum=30-91-0590), released in 1988 - so, likely late 80's. Anything I can add, I'd appreciate.

Um, Tim's is 4029, not 4026. Not much on either in the DB, though.

Thanks Graham - late-night dyslexia! Fixed. Yes, 4029 could use some info too, although I have a date: 1986. Somehow it got in there that there are NO instructions, source Rasputin: doesn't sound right to me, I'm sure there was some kind of paper included.
