The model is simple with no glass in the windows and no lights.
It picks up current on all 4 wheels, and has a low top end speed.

The model is somewhat noisy.

A page about the model:

Note that HJ800100 has the following changes from the diagramme:
belt drive replaced by spur gears (one on the motor, one on the axle)
no light
rigid NEM pocket couplers instead of screwed on couplers

Has anyone seem these extremely cheap Jouef shunting locos? They have a catalogue number HJ800100 and come with a wagon in a blister pack. http://www.gaugemaster.com/item_details.asp?code=HJ800100 You seem to be able to get the pack for under GBP 15. They could be quite useful for industrial, or freelance locos, or perhaps as a chassis for some other kind of project. Has anyone seen them run?
