Ken, that motor on the right/bottom looks to be of AHM or Tempo design. The brush mounting gives it away. Probably a steam engine, but to what, I don't know. But having worked on enough motors now, that design seems to be of Tempo origin to me.

Ken see:
Hope this helps!
EDIT:
I think, MAYBE, those 2 I have marked "Varney?" could be OLD Mantua.....Back in the days of brass Mantua, but again, I'm unsure of it!

Bottom right motor could also be MDC-Roundhouse. My 50's all metal 0-6-0 had that same motor.
I buy, repair, and collect

The one on the lower right looks like a Pitman DC-60 to me. I don't know in what model it might have served.
