@Super No, there is in fact a 1992 Thomas (shown in Duck’s thread and video). It will have a date code sticker on the inside of the shell labeling it as produced in 1992, a “Made in Japan” mark underneath, no middle wheels, a back coupling with no slit, different front axel caps, and brass weights. 1992 was the first year Plarail released Thomas products. The ones AOF showed in this thread are later versions.
