you can't do it easily. The main problem is that the Marklin locos are three rail so the two sides of the drivers are not insulated from each other. It will short out wheather you have changed the motor or not (which you need to do too incidentally) To got it to work you need; new motor new internal wiring new wheels (all of them) probably a new chassis and gearbox so if i were you i'd dingy the idea as you effectively have to scratchbuild a new loco and put the plastic top on it. leave it alone:) neil
