Guys.. Bad thing about it is I have no use for the AF or the MARX stuff. And no idea if they run or not. I was told that they may be DC?? I guess I could use them as some sort of stand in on my layout. ??? Cool looking engines!

Hmmm, I only got my Marx a couple years ago from a guy who had already given it a tuneup. The Marx transformer is in the box too, and I don’t recall which it is, AC or DC, or both, but it hummed along nicely. The box os buried in a closet. Hopefully an expert will respond before I can dig it out.

No worries Mark. I've had that old thing since I was a kid : ) I used to put it on Lionel track and pull it with my DT&I switcher. Since both outside rails are ground it shouldn't have damaged it lol
