This was not cataloged that i'm aware of as it is not listed in any Tyco catalog's. This came with the Silver Streak train sets. This is mint with factory label and box + insert. Interesting to note - The insert is stamped with the item number also of which i don't recall other Tyco cars or locomotives stamped with the product number on box inert sleeve that holds the product.

Hi Brianstyco,
Great pictures!
This is one I do not have.
I have the H 935-3 with the number stamped on the insert that holds the truck. I never noticed this until you mentioned it. It is also a brown box, no sticker on the end flap, just the stamp.
Thanks for sharing.
Mytyco

Interesting, Brian... You have me wondering if any of my truck inserts are stamped. Unfortunately, I just packed my piggyback/truck boxes away two nights ago after having them out for several weeks!
Guess I'll check them at another time in the future!

This got me curious, so I checked one of my trucks, the Cattle Car Depot Trailer and cab, and it also has the insert stamped with the number. This is the Dodge tractor, though.

I'm a bit late to reply, but I just dug my small assortment of trucks out to check the inserts. I found that none of my brown box inserts have the number stamp, but I do have a red box "Item 124:120" (with the 120 marked out in pen) that has a 935-3 stamped in the top part of the cardboard.
In Brianstyco's picture, his cardboard insert looks to be of a heavier gauge cardboard than mine. I also checked to see if maybe I had just mixed up the "container" trailer and cattle car trailers at some point, but the size of the cut out for the two is different, so the semi trailer would be bigger and wouldn't fit in the cattle car insert. Could this insert part number stamp go back to the red box era?

I've also just noticed there's a 903-3 and a 903-31 UP semi truck and trailer. In this case, the 903-31 is the UP without the black outlined lettering on the trailer, and the 903-3 has the black outlines. Was one of these Silver Streak set specific? Neither one of these has a part number stamp on the insert.
