Difference between a trek 500 and 520

I have a 1983 trek 500 that I have been setting up for touring (triple, rack etc). I have looked at the vintage trek site and it appears the geomety is the same for the model 500 and 520. Am I missing something, or are the frames the same? Is there a reason the 520 frame sells for a premium?
