I had a Dark Blue, almost purple, NYC 4 wheel plastic gondola, #715100. Just a heads up, because I have not seen any on eBay since I got it or got rid of it, they have all been light blue. It was in an early version of set #4205 that I gave to a friend's younger sibling. Just letting Marx plastic collectors know, in case its not well documented.
I also have a round framed 951A Wedge tender, not entirely sure as to documentation among collectors there either.
It came with my grandfather's 1952 495 0-4-0, a NYC coffin tender that I suspect was substituted for a different car, a Blue B&O No. 555 boxcar, and a red NYC No. 556 Caboose
If anyone else happens to have an example of a not-so-common Marx piece, feel free to share. Or if it just happens to be your personal favorite.
Also, that 495 I mentioned earlier had Maroon and Red sideboard trim.
