The
style of the inside changed this year and new models included the splendid
2-8-2 steam
locomotives class 141R
now available in both coal and oil burning versions
and a new
electric loco 2-D-2 class 5500 No: 5516 (left) which featured on the cover but little else apart from a
new 'ELF'
bogie
tanker, based on the old 'Shell' tanker body and still bearing the words
'Jouef for Playcraft' underneath.
A new mechanical shovel load for the well wagon
(made by Corgi - Jouef were the Corgi agents in France) and a track
cleaner (right) in the guise of a 4-wheel tank wagon.
Once again 'Un amour de petit train' ('A cute little
train') was included but the range appeared to be static.
A new version of the control switches was introduced.
