Template:ProductLineInfobox[edit source]

Infobox for Product Line category pages. Navy color scheme throughout. Single unified structure across all 8 product lines — no variant flags needed. The logo is integrated as the top row of the infobox table.

Control system compatibility is handled separately by Template:ProductLineCompatTable/[LineName] — a standalone table below the prose showing eras as columns with checkbox rows.

Requires: ParserFunctions extension (ships with MediaWiki 1.39, enabled by default).

Usage[edit source]

{{ProductLineInfobox
| line_name   = 
| line_slug   = 
| price_point = 
| years_active = 
| scale       = 
}}

Parameters[edit source]

Parameter	Description	If Empty
`line_name`	Full official product line name e.g. Lionel Legacy	—
`line_slug`	Short slug for logo filename e.g. Legacy, LionMaster, LionChiefPlus2. Filename: File:Logo-ProductLine-[line_slug].svg	(placeholder shown)
`price_point`	e.g. Entry, Mid-range, Premium, Ultra-premium	—
`years_active`	Full span of the line e.g. 2007–present	—
`scale`	e.g. Scale (1:48), Non-Scale, Scale & Non-Scale	—

Notes[edit source]

Logo filename constructed as File:Logo-ProductLine-[line_slug].svg
When no logo file exists, a dashed-border placeholder displays the line name

 and an "add one" prompt. Self-contained — no separate utility template needed.

Control system compatibility is NOT in this template — it lives in

 Template:ProductLineCompatTable/[LineName] called separately on the page.

This template is identical in structure for all 8 product lines.
