I don't quite understand releasing the PE but not the other sets around the same time.  It would seem the best way to make use of production slots.

 

Maybe marketing figures the other sets would siphon customers away from the PE set.

Usually, the rolling stock for a set and the locomotive are not made at the same time. Once completed, the set contents are gathered and boxed together. This is the way that Gilbert and Lionel Corp. did things in 'the old days', as well. Given the tightness of the production queue these days, there can be a considerable time lag between when the early items and the last are finished. YMMV.
