Judging by the lack of detail, the bottom one looks like either a bachmann, or life-like. It could also be an Athearn although looking at the trucks, it could be a dummy. (unpowered)
My guess is Bachmann also for the C44-9. The fuel tank is too plain for Athearn. It just looks like someone did a bad job painting the fuel tanks and trucks gold. I'm not too sure about the top one either. Looks like Athearn motor mounts but the coupler moutns don't look like typical Athearn. It would have helped to have a side view of these also.
I know the top one is Athearn by the bottom of the trucks and the 4 holes for the motor mounts. Some Proto 2000 locos also have the same motor mount holes, but Proto never made a U30C.
The drive on the bottom loco is clearly OMI, but the body is a dash 8 - I said dash 9 earlier. RPP made both. Overland made a drive for the RPP dash 8.
I see the remains of price stickers on the bottom, curious how they were priced especially relative to each other. Athearn U-boat is worth 20 bucks. The drive on the dash 8 could get you $100 on ebay.
I agree with the Athearn U28C/U30C ID for the the top one. I'll defer to Andy for the bottom one since I have very little knowledge of the Rail Power line.
They are all Athearn Blue Box line. The first is a GP-35, the second is a Baldwin S-12, the third is too dark to tell for sure, I think a GP-7. The fourth is really dark but I think it's either an SD-45 or SDP45. The last is a B&O GP-7

Actually, if you look closely at the roof line on the fourth one, it looks more like a FP45, as it looks like a full cowl on the loco with a front and back porch. The odd thing is, I can't remember PRR having any....
Id agree the first three are athearn. But the fourth one, the pennsy fp45 looks like one of the cheap ones made by mehano. If the fuel tank is plastic, has truck mounted couplers and has plastic handrails then it would be mehano. It should also say mehano or such on the bottom of the fuel tank and the words " made in yugoslovia". Hope this helps.
