I collect Marx (O and HO gauge), so I've always been intrigued by this. It's sometimes more than just the tooling that's the same. I have a Lehigh Portland cement hopper car by Model Power that is exactly idenatical to my Marx one. If you put them side by side there's hardly any difference. I'm not sure about other cases like this, though. Mehano uses some of the Tyco tooling. Especially noticeable are the familiar Tyco style of cabooses.
