Linhof Kardan Color 45s rail same as the 1960 Linhof Kardan Triplex 8x10 rail?

[zsolt]

Greetings!

are the 2 rails mentioned above the same-interchangeable?
the difference i can see from pictures is that the slot on the rail is facing up on the 1960 8x10 Triplex,and down on the Color 45s.the rest is impossible to figure out from pics,or from info on the net(at least i couldnt find it).asking cause i bought a 1960 Linhof Kardan Triplex 8x10,and if possible i would like to use with it the rail of the Kardan Color 45 i have.its not here(otherwise wouldnt ask),will take a week to arrive,but in the meantime would like to start and prepare some things in advance.
could someone help me out with some info on this?
Thanks in advance!
Zs.

Totally different and the 45s rail is different then any other Linhof rail and is a fixed length.

I know of no source and the factory haven't had parts for it for decades.
