The total bonus per wagon is +3500%, plus the 40% diesel bonus is +4940% per wagon. You have to sum 100 to the different bonus values, and then multiply them all:

Wagon bonus: +500% = x6

Set bonus: +500% = x6

Diesel bonus: +40% = x1.4

for a total of x50.4 (that is, a steam train with 50 base wagons will carry slightly less). For comparison, a diesel train carrying now-common +300% wagons, will need exactly 9 wagons to carry the same as this, so the full set is equivalent to a full 36-power diesel train loaded with +300% wagons.
