6/4 (Holton 345) -> 4/4 (186 w/ 16.5 bell) -> 6/4 (MW2165) -> large 4/4-small 5/4 (MW2000, 56J)

piston->rotary->piston

and maybe thicker metal (20J, 345) -> thinner metal (early mirafone, cerveny) -> thicker metal (MW, newer mirafones) this last trend is due largely to the differences in manufacturing

I am sure there are a lot more, keep em coming!
