I have this set. Yes, originally, the ads called for a "AA" diesel set but that is not the case.
The set comes boxed with (4) cars and (1) engine. Currently, there is also a 2 car add-on set available. Finally, there will be a full dome and also the "tail end" car later this year. Lionel was showing both the full dome and end car in their booth at York last month.
Yes, the price for the boxed set does seem a little high........but I was able to buy the set and add-on at York for $100's below list price. The passenger cars are perfect, no problems and the engine is fantastic. The E8 pulls the cars without any issues. At some point, I may purchase the additional E8's.
