The first item is a diesel switcher locomotive featuring a blue plastic body shell mounted on a black die-cast metal chassis. The cab side is printed in yellow with the number 614 and a graphic of a genie-like figure. The long hood is printed with the words ALASKA RAILROAD in yellow, and a raised mark on the side reads BUILT BY LIONEL. A yellow plastic horn and vent assembly is mounted to the top of the hood. The underside of the chassis features a raised plastic block reading LIONEL DIESEL SWITCHER THE LIONEL CORPORATION, N.Y. MADE IN U.S. OF AMERICA. This unit is equipped with a motorized drive, a three-position E-unit for directional control, and an operating knuckle coupler on the front pilot. The second item is a steam locomotive tender featuring a black plastic body shell on a die-cast metal frame. The sides are printed in white with LIONEL LINES. The top includes a simulated textured coal load. The underside of the metal chassis is stamped in white characters reading 2046W-50. The underside reveals an internal air-whistle mechanism including a relay and impeller housing. The tender is equipped with two four-wheel trucks and an operating knuckle coupler at the rear. , Both items exhibit a layer of surface dust and minor wear consistent with age and use.

The internal motor and wiring are visible through the underside and appear intact, though uncleaned (photo 7).

There is scuffing and minor scratching on the plastic underside housing of the whistle mechanism (photo 12). No original boxes are present.
