Product Numbering & Bar Code Verification of Phantom Plarail Sets

The team is called "いなかのえき", a group of volunteers who devote their knowledge and time to rediscover mainly ancient Japanese Plarail.

From here we will derail off Showa-era Plarail numbering confirmation.

Have you heard of the story of the "Gray Coupler And the Boarding Pass"? It was dating back to 1999 where it is only released in the pre-release version 40th anniversary 3 car reprint Family Travel Salon Car Set. This version also only has the boarding card. It is a hidden phantom gem in Plarail (hidden gem because it is Heisei era and does not match the description of Phantom Gem), it is not very known until today where somebody brought his play sets to today's Plarail Festival (informal gathering) and explained the story to us. The boarding card is used to board the same train in real life, and only 40 cards are recorded so far.

Guess what? The boarding card has a product ID, and it is rumoured to be different for each card. This ID will be added here for the first time. The 2 boxes are identical, sharing every trait and ID.






25/26 could mean the seat number in a car. We will find out why the slash is included, could it be a shared seat for 2 people?
