I am indebted to several people who have freely given information or pictures about Jouef trains, which have enhanced the site and added to my knowledge.
In particular Bill Thursfield and Philippe Galaup. I would also like to express thanks to Patrick Broguiere, Robert Forsythe, Paul Roche, Stefan Svensson, Michael Moynihan and others.
