I thought they were only produced as DC, so you are looking for a model that someone's converted.

The conversion from DC to AC ist very easy. Attach a pickup shoe under one bogie, detach the wires from one side of the currentpickups and bridge the pickups of the left and right side. Voila! Decoder though is essential....without it it wont work.

...unfortunately, the shoe does not fit into the space that the bogie has. Another solution that I apply to AC conversions is to take power from the vagon that follows with a capler that has a plug.
It is also essential to reduce the shaft length from 14,25(14,35 14,45)mm to 13.85 (13,95)mm and removing some plastic part from the shaft-gear cap (especially for Marklin C-trαcks)
