What ya got there is a GP35 I believe and it is an Blue Box Athearn...looks to be in good shape.
 


Athearn has the railing kits in stock. Part #ATH42019. I've got the same engine road #722. Horns are a dime a dozen. What other parts are you needing?

As far as the decoder, I use Digitrax 123ATH.

Judging from the way the motor is mounted, I second that it's an Athearn. Not too up on modern diesels, so I can't help you there.
 
Definetly an older Athearn Blue-Box GP35. The WIDE body and separate cab roof are the main spotting features of the BB GP35, SDP40 & SD45.

Ok,I have a problem with another loco,where do I find a gear for the drive?
Its an Bachmann GP-38.I cant find any online parts pages.
The one gear is split and makes a "clicking noise"
