I recall that for the 9V line, it has primarily been such that both a
Freight and a Passenger set has been available at all times.
Of course, the 4559 was supposed to be both, but that is another issue.
The 4565 is due to be retired after this year, which means that we should
see a new Freight Train take its place.
The reason for the alternating pattern of freight/passenger is that their
shelf lives overlap. This means one new train every year and a half.
