Golden Spike II with a Santa Fe Engine

Kayla writes:

“My son was just given an HO scale train set. It is a Golden Spike II with a Santa Fe engine on the box, but the model engine is a Burlington Northern. It is a 105 piece set. I am just interested in some information on the set. I tried searching, but I am a complete novice. Thank you in advance!”

    What brand is it?

    On May 10, 2019, the United States Postal Service issued a set of three new commemorative postage stamps to mark the 1h anniversary of the driving of the golden spike: one stamp for the Jupiter locomotive, one stamp for locomotive #119, and one stamp for the golden spike.

    Has the original locomotive in the box been replaced by a different one ?
    Burlungton Northern did not exist when the Golden Spike was driven in !
