Here is what I found and put together on the HObbyline train sets. It is information on 29 of them and on only two sets #1 and #2 did I not find a set name. I am certain that I don't have them all. 2 have single-digit numbers, 25 of these sets have 3 digit ID numbers. Only 2 have 4 digit ones and they and were the last HObbyline made. Each of these last two sets came with an unassembled boxed kit to add an additional car for those sets. Set 2500 came with a flat car; I think it is Pennsylvania RR. Set 3500 came with a Lehigh New England gondola.
