Snow Covered Diesel?!?

Hi all,
I was looking through my Trackmaster/Tomy collection, and I saw snow covered diesel! Is he rare? Did he come with a set? Did he come with these snow covered trucks?

This is actually the Diesel from the Fisher-Price Target-exclusive “Devious Diesel and the Troublesome Trucks” glow-in-the-dark pack. It included this variant Diesel and two Troublesome Trucks with glowing loads. I believe those trucks are also the ones you have, without the loads. From what’s included in the pack, I would guess the little specks on his side are actually supposed to represent quarry/rock dust as opposed to snow (one of the trucks is carrying stone), although almost all eBay listings call him “Snow Covered Diesel”. And sorry, he’s not that rare; there are currently quite a few for sale.

What I’m interested in is does any part of the Diesel actually glow? The Wiki says it is a “glowing Diesel” but I haven’t been able to find anything about the Diesel actually being glow-in-the-dark, just the trucks’ loads.

The loads glow in the dark but Diesel does not. Same for the "Ghostly Percy" pack.

@Fred Ah thanks, that’s what I figured but I wasn’t sure because the Wiki says Diesel glows as well. It would be cool if they made the “snow” glow-in-the-dark though
