The set is a 120th anniversary set so the idea is to throw back to traditional postwar sets with the warbonnet and OPERATING freight cars. Operating milk car and log car are included. It is a very nice postwar tribute
So many anniversary sets, I get confused. 
This was a proper one -- F-3s with aluminum passenger cars!
