The set has "fallen off the truck" and surfaced. The new photos reveal
some of the exact parts and construction details.

The bogies look interesting, and there's some definite gearing behind
the new wheels (perhaps to make it easier to motorize). The round part
isn't large panels after all - it's a mix of cheese slopes and the
new-ish 2x4 curve slope (<http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=61068>).
This is the first set to have that part in dark green. Some light bley ones show
up in the wagon too (but those are also in a 2009 SW kit). I don't think the
gears in unusual colors are new, but I don't believe we've seen them in a while
either.

Can anyone translate this? Here's the message board thread (the photos
are in the first few posts):

Rumor has it that it’s a RC engine.  From the photos, it looks like you
could put the 9v motor in place of the front 2 wheels, but that just
wouldn’t look right.  Personally, I’d build a car to put behind the tender
that had the 9v motor
