This will take place of the old R-17
The old R-17 will now be available only as J-06
Tomy does this all the time when they add new trains and discontinue others, hence different trains having same catalog number, this also applies to track and scenery pieces.
So HobbySearch's catalog numbers are correct.
I must say that I don't understand Takara/Tomy's business plan when they offer the curved station and curved crossing for sale separately from the set but not the bridge by itself, I wonder why? Maybe they think that no one will buy the set!
Or it is a trial of the track part it really isnt that great of a bridge.
