I have a question about an old tyco train set, it was made in the 1970's I think and I cant seem to find it on e-bay nor can I find it on the tyco resource site, the set I am looking for came with an engin number #5628, it is a red /black and white engin with CN painted on the front, I can post a picture if need be, I would like to what else this set came with , all I have left is the engin and I would love to put the rest of the set back togther just like it was when I was a kid, I know the set came with a SEA QUEST double container car and brown frieght car and a red caboos marked CN I think, the whole set was part a bridge and tressel set and I think was only avaliable in canada, can anyone give me any more info on this set? please , I am very desperate and hungry for info.

THX:
Is your engine a GP-20 or one of the odd cross-numbered 5628 CN Alco 430's? Also, could the livery on the flat car loads be Sea Land or Sea Train rather than Sea Quest? Lastly, was the trestle-outfit original to the set or an add-on?

You have to excusse my ignorance but I am new to the train hobby, after doing some research I have found out that I have an F-9A Diesel.
After searching hard I found out the catalog number is #224 my train is listed here in the resource guid as CN Canadian national #4316
The number 5628 is the number painted on the side of the engine it self, near the back, the engine is the only part I still have of the set and I am not sure what else goes with it. I have seen simaler engines with a different number printed on it, I will post a pic if I figure out how to do that.
You are rite about Sea Land being painted on the flat car loads, that was my mistake, it was not sea quest it was sea land, that is the only car I am sure came with the set, along with a red caboose
The bridge and tressel set was and original piece with this set, it was not an add on, this I know for sure.
I am very hungry for info on this set, if anyone knows anything about this set, if any one has one or has the cars that go with it, I will pay top dollar for it. name the price.
