Further information to complement the discography
There was restricted space in the discography and I dropped many potential summary lists because even I thought them too 'train-spotty' or too lengthy. The only one included was the Matchbox series summary list, and that only to preclude an inconvenient near-empty page at the end of the main SD catalogue section.
Other series are listed below, along with lots of other lists, ordered by date (i.e. when the first of the series appeared). This might be a bit wrong-footed on occasion because sometimes a series was not made explicit until several records in and some series only exist on advertising materials rather than being explicitly stated on record sleeves.
