The set should be an AA set of #62 B&O diesels and a boxcar, hopper, tank car and caboose.
The original set transformer was probably the very small 25W #309 with output of 6-12 VAC. However, Marx will run just about any available transformer with a variable output. Ideally, it should be variable in the range of approximately 6-15 VAC (or DC) and have an output of at least 2A. Note that the powered unit has a two position reverse (forward and reverse only). Do not forget to clean and lubricate the motor, if needed.

Thanks.  All the pieces are there except for the transformer, even the track.  The box bottom is intact but no lid.  I have a couple of old Lionel and American Flyer transformers that should work.

Thanks again,

Chris
