That is an early Athearn SW7 drive with I think Cary sideframes and tank detail. Could be possibly made to fit the HH440 diesel locomotive.

thats a late 1960's Athearn OR early 1970's.....That frame was first introduced on the Athearn S-12!

And for the record, its 100% Athearn.....I have about 4 of them and all still run well even without the flywheels, this was the first gearing used by Athearn re-tooled for gearing and not "Hi-Fi" rubber band drives.
