Elias is right, 7860 came out at least at first (1980-1981) with 3242a, then
it was replaced with 3242d, and finally at the end of the eighties with 3242b.
Take a look at the attached pictures, in particular the front and back of the
box.

P.S. The box shown in the pictures is dated 1981, as the 1981 mini train catalogue
confirms.

And here's a picture of a late eighties version with 3242b (notice the 1989
version of the box).
