Just some FYI info I seen:

For the 3208 Interstate Delivery, Tyco made three variations. The set was made from 1984-1985.

The 3208 used a 3032 Double Turn-Out w/ Bin.

There is a 3208-1, it switched the 3032 for a 3031 Double Turn-Out and added a 3440 Dump Bin, which was discontinued in 1982 when the 3032 debuted in 1983.

Then there is the 3208-2. For this set Tyco YOLO’ed and dropped the 3031 and actually used two 3016 Tun-Outs. Even crazier is the T/O were all shown on the Content Sheet as being the 3030 T/O w/ Switch that was in the G.I. Joe set. I tried to verify that from the seller but they didn’t know. AFAIK they were normal T/O…

Info verified by content sheet and sheet code.

I ran across a 3216 set a while back, and since I had one already I didn’t look at it too hard. Got bored and went through Sold Items and saw it and looked. It was actually a Montgomery Ward catalog set! I can’t remember ever seeing a MW set for sale, ever! Catalog item 48 G 28070M. The number was 3330 on it. The 33## is the designation for the catalog sets, if you didn’t know. I though all catalog sets but the S3311 were sold in the grey Tyco boxes but this was in a retail box.

Item verified by box item number, and content sheet.

From what I seen there are sets 3311, 3320, 3330, 3336, and 3344. There were 25 catalog sets made, so I’m keeping my eyes peeled for new info.
