The Matchbox TP-20 Diesel Shunter and Side Tipper was released in 1979 in two variations; one has a black dumper and one has a red dumper as you see in the example I landed in an eBay auction. In 1991, this Two Pack was re-released as TP-125 with models cast in China (with a red dumper).

The Matchbox #24 Diesel Shunter was first released in 1978 and was produced in about 6 different variations. In my collection, I have a loose example identical to the one in this Two-Pack as well as a nice version of the metallic green variation.
