Locomotives introduced this year were the green Co-Co electric
CC7107 (below left) , the
Dutch version
1308 in blue, the bo-bo diesel BB66150, which was highly praised for
its quiet operation, and the spectacular Genève - Nice Panoramique railcar.
The Cockerill 85T crane was also introduced (still going strong 30 years later) and
a couple of new liveried tank wagons (Primagaz and Pierrefitte). The
4-wheel low-sided wagon with two Bailly containers was also included
(right),
although a previous version with SNCF containers had been available in
1964.
The building kits in this catalogue still seemed to be from Pola, the
range being small but including many seen in the Playcraft catalogues.
This catalogue gave nearly half the pages over to the slot-car range and introduced the 'UNIVERSEL
BRIK' construction bricks which appeared to be similar to Lego.
