The accessories illustrated depended on the year they were offered originally. The gravel conveyor is (c) 1979 and the grain elevator is (c) 1981 - as long as it was the same width box the accessories were the same that year.
BTW: if the illustration was brass in the front and it said (c) 1978 on the back, then it was Tru-Steel track inside and not brass.
