Does anyone have the 2000 Lionel Service Station Limited? It was headed by a C-420. I am interested in learning what cars go with the set (I believe it was sold separately). Any pics would be very welcome!
Thank you.

Here's a link to a somewhat decent picture of the box. (hard to see real details of the cars, but you can see what they are)
To the best of my knowledge, it was not offered as separate pieces, but many people broke up sets. The pieces were individually boxed as shown here.
At one point I had a gondola and the smoke fluid tank car, but thinned the herd to get rid of them. I may have a boxcar still (I never bought the full set though, these were all bought as single items on eBay).
Note the Parts Gondolas did not have the circuit boards shown in the pictures! If they did, the gondola would have been worth a lot more! 
Mine had some logs, simple wire harnesses, maybe a single drive wheel from a steam engine, and maybe a few small bulbs.

Thanks, Dave: this is a GREAT help! I also appreciate the info on its status as a boxed set.
I am considering collecting the loco and cars--the boxes would be incidental to me for this particular set--as an excuse to run a C-420 on an all-steam RR
