You've got it about right.

The letter series was replaced by the 25-65 horsepower 00 series, The 100 replaced the Super A, 200 replaced Super C, 300 replaced Super H, 400 replaced Super MTA, and the big 600 replaced the Super W-9. They also added a Utility model, the 300U.

In '56, the 30/50 series relpaced the 00 series. The models were the 130, 230, the 330 Utility, which was a new size, the 350 and 350 U, the 450, and the 650.

The 25-80 horsepower 40/60 series came in '58, which were the 140, 240, 340, 460, 560, and 660, all still fairly similar to the A, C, H, M, W-9, execpt that the 460, 560, and 660 now had six-cylinder engines.

The 65- 112 horsepower 06 series came in '63, with the 606 Utility, the 706, 806, and in '65, the 1206. The 7, 8, and 12 were a totally new design. Their little brothers were the 404 and 504, quite similar to the 240 and 340.

In '65, the 50-65 horsepower 656 series came along, with the 656 being built from '65-'72, the 544 from about '67-'72, the 666/Hydro 70 from '73-'76, and the 686/Hydro 86 from '77-80. Most guys classify these with the 56, 66, and 86 series, but they are a design/series all of their own.

In '67, the 75-130 horsepower 56/26 series replaced the 06's- the 756, 856, 1256, and later the 1456, 826, and 1026.

The 80-150 horsepower 66 series came along in '71- the 766, 966, Hydro 100, 1066, 1466, and 1566. There was also the 1468 and 1568, which had V-8 diesels.

The 80- 160 horsepower 86 series came in '76, the 886, 986, Hydro 186, 1086, 1486, 1586, and later, the 786.

The 80-187 horsepower 3088/5088 series came in '82, the 3088, 3288, 3488 Hydro, 3688, 5088, 5288, and 5488. The basic design of the Case-IH Magnums is based off of the 5088 series.

I know I left out a few, like the 2+2's, the 4 wheel drives, and the British Utilities, but I'm sure I've already told you more than you ever wanted to know.
