The only 2055 passenger set I can find is outfit 1502WS from 1953 (the first year of the 2055 production). The numbers and names are as magoo noted, but the cars with gray roofs were made from 1950-51, while the all-silver cars were made from 1952-53. So, if you want to match the set cars, they should be all-silver.
