1968-69 Catalogue

The first of the larger catalogues saw some new models but also the re-introduction of some re-vamped older ones.

The most important development was the Telecommande system of automatic train control.

The 2-8-0 tender loco was introduced in green and the Draisine (Track maintenance vehicleDraisine PWay vehicle which had just entered service on SNCF) was also introduced (right). Also a red version of the bo-bo BB9288 to match 'Le Capitole' stock, which was also new. This consisted of a coach and a restaurant car in red. Also introduced this year was a new stainless steel (Inox) 1st class coach and a new SNCF UIC standard 1st class coach in green. 

 CIWL diner The older passenger stock models from Playcraft days still soldiered on and now included the former Playcraft self-service restaurant car (868) in red.

On the freight side came some re-liveried 4 wheel tankers ('Solonia', 'Vins Margnat' and 'Propane Butagaz'), and the famous heating van for use with the class 67001 diesel.

1968 also included 'Un amour de petit train' ( 'A cute little train') in the shape of theDecauville loco ex-Playcraft Decauville and the remains of the Egger-Bahn range.

A much larger range of building kits was now available which were made by Jouef themselves.

Once again the slot car system was included as was the Briks range.
