Brilliant,,, really glad you got her going. The big sausage motor lol. Strong little engine if I remember correctly. I used to hook all my coaches and wagons to it and it would go all day. The sound from the gear drive took me straight back there. Got to be 50yrs ago I had mine . Well worth £10 and some 3in1 oil. Thanks for sharing your vids. 👍😀😎👍👍👍👍 Green Diesel Lives again !!!! Thanks. 👍
Actually, the loco is an HO model of a North British (Mann powered) Type 1 Class 21. When this model was first manufactured, in the early 1960's, British Railways hadn't rebuilt any Class 21's, with more reliable & powerful Sulzer engines, to create Class 29's. The Class 29's didn't appear until 1967, with the last being withdrawn from service in 1971. By 1973, all Class 21's and Class 29's had been cut up for scrap. Later post 1967 versions, without the sausage motor, had more detailed & correct length bogies. Those were Class 29's.
Jué. Ju as in juice and raised e and silent f . Gotta look out for their Class 40s _ Fun fact HO is scale more accurate on the rail gauge that both HO/OO use . OO wheel gauge is too narrow based on reality

The Jouef 1960s motor design is brilliant. It has an internal flywheel effect. Shame they changed their mechanism to an inferior one in the 1970s.
