All the nodes have all the transactions (roughly).
When you say the winning node puts "its" transactions in the block, that is really the transactions that it is currently aware of, and that fit in the block.
All the losing nodes have the same transactions as well.
When orphan blocks are identified and dropped, any unique transactions in those blocks are added to the pool of transactions that have the opportunity to be added to the next block

It's just that those transactions who got inserted into the "losing" block - but not in the "winning" one - will be kept around to be added in a new block in the future.
