2.4 Index and Type Designations Assigned to Chapters

The following index lists common terms and type designations used throughout this catalogue and indicates the chapters in which they appear. The columns correspond to the three sections: "General", "MINIRAIL and MINISCALE", and "MINISLIDE". Blank cells indicate that no chapter in that section applies.
