To be more specific, following blocks (up to 546 only) contain more than one transaction:

381,383,384,385,387,388,389,390,392,394,398,399,400,401,402,404,405,406,408,410,411,412,413,415,417,420,421,422,423,425,426,427,429,430,433,434,435,438,441,442,443,444,445,446,447,448,449,450,451,453,454,455,456,457,458,460,461,462,463,464,465,466,467,468,469,470,473,474,476,477,479,480,481,482,483,484,485,486,487,488,489,491,492,493,496,499,500,501,502,504,505,507,509,510,511,514,515,516,517,519,520,521,522,523,524,526,528,530,532,538,542,546

Here is the linearized data file suitable for use with -loadblock=. It is much smaller and no extra XOR file is needed (which is a v28.0 feature).

testnet3-mini.zip

By the way this is work in progress, but I use this issue to track work on it. It is actually not an issue with this repo but a PR may come out if this eventually (and maybe even by someone else).
