Anybody ever see a Shimano Track End?

I hadn't, not before noticing this tonight on the Croll track frame I got at the swap.
I feel like I've seen Shimano dropouts before, but never a horizontal.

Anybody know when they made these or if they were common?

A weird thing (or maybe not) is that the dropouts aren't left or right, the same dropout is used for both sides on this bike. (logo on outside of non drive and inside of drive side)

drop some knowledge in the comments
