I liked the sound of the TDK cassette formulation (SA) a wee bit more than the Maxell (UDXL-II), although I always "felt like" Maxell tapes were "better".
Don't tell ASR of my subjectivist rationale. 
I used both. Both have held up well for 45 years, I must say.

I had at least one Tyco set as well. I don't remember they were so bad, though.

I remember that the cars looked pretty good - which was important to me!
Meanwhile, out in Christmasland...

Looking for something else entirely in old Audio magazines at WRH, I stumbled across this inside front cover ad from RCA, employing the seldom-seen cool engineers trope.

Savannah Santa Train
Louie Bebeau, age 3, lets Santa know what he wants for Christmas on Saturday December 10, 2022 during Savannah Santa Train at the Georgia State Railroad Museum. Frank McDonough has played Santa for many years during Coastal Heritage Society's annual and much-beloved Savannah Santa Train. The Savannah Santa Train will depart every 20 minutes at the Georgia State Railroad Museum on Dec. 18.
Santa says most kids ask for the same thing. Girls want a handful of Barbie dolls and boys want dirt bikes
