If three years have past, I would assume any organic matter and/or additives you placed there have been incorporated into the existing soil by the micro and macro organisms to a near neutral pH.
You also say you have other fruits and vegetables growing in the same area without any signs of distress.
My guess would be either heat or lack of or sporadic watering. If the tomatoes are wilting on a regular basis, chances are the flowers and or developing ovaries are aborting due to the stress.

It may still be because the soil is too well fertilized, so the plant is going to all growth. Too much nitrogen causes the plant to be very leafy, and even blossom, but not set fruit. You may want to test your soil. If it is lacking nitrogen, the leaves would probably be yellowed or pale green. It doesn’t sound like your soil is lacking nitrogen.

Another cause of not setting fruit is temperatures staying over 80*F.

A third could be from lack of pollinators–potentially because of pesticide use, but not necessarily so.

Ask a gardening expert… but I suspect your soil, because of its origins, is still TOO rich for tomatoes. Or maybe the ammonium sulfate is the culprit…. the ph may not agree with the tomato plants. The nursery will be able to tell you what ideal growing conditions are, or why flowers fail to develop.
