The Turbo Missile Launching Car No. 3349 would launch its "wheel shaped turbo missile" manually from a spring mechanism. This car was pictured in the catalogs with a number on the side, but it was only produced with no inscription. The No. 3349 came with an extra turbo missile. The frame was based on the No. 3650 Searchlight depressed center flat car and this version has no mold number. Came with AAR trucks, disc couplers, its own instruction sheet, and was available from 1962 until 1965. There is one variation that has a DARKER RED body.
