I came across this American Flyer coach and baggage car at a local train shop that sells new and used trains. It looks like years ago someone started a project by adding a motor and headlight to the coach to make a trolley. To me it looked like it was calling out to be taken home and be completed. I cleaned the motor and got it running but the axles must have been bent because it had a horrible wobble. Instead of dealing with that I substituted a Marx motor. Added windows, steps, pilot, and Marx trucks on the baggage car to lower it's height. After a fresh coat of paint it's ready to roll.
