You weren't into LEGO in the 1960's or early 1970's were you? (Were you even alive then!) The parts pack #224 had them (there were packs in white, red, blue, yellow, black and clear). There were 20 in a box in the European version, 33 in the (...) (24 years ago, 8-Dec-00, to lugnet.general)

I guess if you had 396, the old steam locomotive, you'd remember... There are also 2 in 603, a small old-timer. And, as mentioned by others, there are 4 in the cadillac.
