If I'm seeing correctly, the box cars are the 2000 series. I do not see anything newer. The gons and flat seem to have the draft gear platforms from the first ng 2-truck freight equipment.
If I'd take a guess, I'd wonder if this is from the late 1870s or 1880s.
Not many of the 1500-1711 series flat and gons were gone by the 1887 renumbering (only about 70). Only seven of them made the 1903 renumbering.
As for the 2001-2166 box cars, only 27 made the 1903 renumbering.
