I'm not into trains, any idea what this set is worth, or how to better identify it?
Was in my great aunt's attic. Seems to be in relatively good shape but I haven't tried to set it up and test it. From what I've gathered it's Marx brand, O gauge, and made sometime in the 1950s. All metal except for a few detail bits. Hard to see in the photo but the engine has number 666 on it.
Also has a transformer, 45 assorted track pieces + a manual switchplate, and some plastic parts for the platform/signs/etc.
Also I have no clue what the little black piece with the red light (at the top in the photo) is for. It's all plastic and has electrical contacts inside for the light, but doesn't seem to fit anywhere.
