I have a question for English speaking people:

What is the difference between:
 
Part No: 42367  Name: Duplo, Train Intelli-Train Engine Base Battery Case Lid (Fits 6172)
* 
42367 Duplo, Train Intelli-Train Engine Base Battery Case Lid (Fits 6172)
Parts: DUPLO, Train
 
Part No: 32290  Name: Electric, Motor 4.5V 17 x 6 x 5 Battery Cover
* 
32290 Electric, Motor 4.5V 17 x 6 x 5 Battery Cover
Parts: Electric, Motor

I mean between: "battery cover" and "battery case lid"
Can't be both named "battery cover" ?

PS: some parts are named "battery box cover" other "battery case cover"
I think we should delete "case" and "box"

A lid is usually something that covers something else from above, so it is not
really appropriate when it is on the bottom or side of something. "Cover" is
much more appropriate.

Cheers,

Hi Randy,

Thank you for you answer.
I will go with "Cover"
