130 ST was a prototype. 260ST hit the shelves.

I think they released a 520ST in Europe, but not sure anymore.

The 520ST Is Very Common!My First ST Was A 1040 But Later, I Had Toad Computer
Take A 520ST, Upgrade The RAM To 4 Megs Of SIMMs, I Think It Was A JRI Board,
Upgrade The Keyboard And Modify It So It Has TOS v.1.0 And v.1.4 On A Switch!
I Used It To Run My BBS! I Especially Liked That The Disk Drives And Power
Supplies Are External! I Still Have That 520ST And My Old BBS Software And I'm
Considering Putting It Back Up Again! Thanx! =-=Ben=-=
