Pre-war JEP abandoned model train - Rusty locomotive - Restoration

- Here is a new video !!
It's been a while ! Sorry about that... Many people asked me for a longer video with more details ;)
This is a streamline model train produced by JEP for Unis France before 1940, probably between 1932-1939, but not sure... If any of you have more infos...
It's a 120 type / 0 gauge. There was an electro system in the tender, I guess the original model had a full electric motor.
Each part was completely seized and pretty much rusted.
I thought the spring was broken then I was very surprised that it wasn't.
What you don't see in the video is that the spring finally broke during an electrolytic bath 🤔 I had to lift one end of it so the motor is a little less powerful.... It's not obvious on the video but I spent a couple days trying to bring this pre-war clockwork back to life !
Please watch till the end to see this antique rusty locomotive in action !
I'm aware that dark brown chocolate is not the perfect original color but it comes close ;)
By supporting the channel you help me make more of these video and find more amazing items.
I hope you'll enjoy this restoration.
Thanks a lot for watching !

Sometimes I think that there is very little sadder than an abandoned toy; something that made a child happy many years ago, and is now aged and lost, played with by no one. You do good work.
🙏Thanks a lot for watching and commenting !! These toys have a second life now... my children are happy 😃
@@TheFabrik can you please tell me which model of this train is

Making tool that you'll use once and never again is peak craftmanship.
Thank you !!! 😃🙏
To remedy some of the rough running, I reccomend setting one side of the driving wheels at 90 degrees to the other side. This is called "quartering" and it balances out the weight in the wheel
You’re right. I didn’t know about that. It’s fixed now !! Many thanks 🙌
Nothing like seeing a battered, rusty and bent piece become a work if art. Thoroughly an enjoyable watch.
Thank so much Mark French 😃👍🏻
I will never comprehend how you, and other restorers like you, get these things back together! Well done.
Christmas 1930 (or something) Boxing Day, a child, perhaps waiting for years on end for his most wanted present. A steam locomotive and his favourite too! He’s playing with it in front of the fire place day after day, weeks, months but slowly but surely the little train moved from the boys room to the attic where it waited to make place for other forgotten toys and moved to a Misty and water leaking shed were it’s rest till it was found again and restored in it’s old sheen colours and it runs till it’s spring runs to an end and it was put in a closet were everybody could enjoy it’s beauty. I don’t know if you’ve noticed but my youth came along with this video 🥲 how can I thank you for sharing this beautiful video with me 👍👍❤️
Oh thank you very much for these nice words 👍🏻
Love the taking it all apart at the beginning! Every boys dream, taking things apart! You are a true craftsman!
Watching you bring old dead toys , Back to life ,is a joy , been lot's of grief in my life lately , sounds strange , been healing , thank you and blessings on you
Thank you very much ! I’m so glad to help you feeling better 😌🙌
i love that the driver was standing silently in whole video :)

It was restored free for him....
Saved from the dustbin of historical toys. You have achieved a remarkable restoration of this toy loco and your engineering skills are to be congratulated on especially the wheel remover tool. These large tin plate locos remind me of my childhood and it certainly bought back some happy memories. Job well done.
Thank you very much !!! I’m glad you enjoyed 😃🙌
Don't see how you can remember where all the parts goes so you can put it back together again! Good Job. So much attention to detail and time. Makes me so happy to see restorations on things from long ago. Be nice if more people cared.
Он снимает всё на камеру, а после просмотра устанавливает все по своим местам🤷🏼♀️
Man, I didn't think there'd be anything under all that rust. Really beautiful restoration. Looks great 👍 👌
Absolutely beautiful restoration! Your special techniques are in themselves a skill to be admired.
Thank you so much 🙌👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Wonderful how you preserve history for all of us who remember the good ol' days! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you ! Glad you enjoyed 🙌
😮
The train seems almost joyous scuttling along the tracks at the end; you did a brilliant job breathing life back into this beautiful little toy!
That tools to remove wheels was something! I think that with a little bit of body filler the result would have been perfect. But still it's an impressive job! 👍
Thank you ! Well yes it could have been better... ;) Thanks a lot for watching and commenting ! 🙌👍🏻🙏
I kinda like the damage that’s still their, gives it a more authentic and old style look to it. To me it looks more realistic like that then it would, if it was perfectly restored.
These imperfections are honor badges of survival.
My very favourite part of restoration videos is watching replacement parts be created from scratch. This video not only had that, but even the fabrication of a tool to remove the wheels! Thank-you, I enjoyed this very much. 👏
Thanks again William !
He popped out a knife & cut up a side street !...in your case box! a superb restoration, truly superb stuff !👌👌🎥🚂🚃😀👀
😀 👍 Thank you very much !!! 🌟
WOW! I am amazed at the transformation… I couldn’t imagine the finished train could look so fantastic. Awesome work!
Thank you very much Nancy !! 😀👍🏻🙌
So worthy restoring and as always you did it justice. Great work and enjoyable video.
Thank you so much !!🙌🙌🙏👍🏻
Отличная работа, мастер! Будем надеяться, что Вы и электрооборудование локомотива восстановите!
Hats off to you for getting the train back to its almost original state! I own models trains that are not toys. Also, thanks for keeping the music down to a minimum, just to the end. Du bist toll!
Thanks a lot Edgard 🙌👍🏻🙏
What you started with was truly a " rust bucket " ! What you recreated was a beauty !
Never stop ! You're so refreshing to watch. Thanks.
Thank you !!! New vid soon 😉✌️
Another fabulous job. These videos are totally mesmerizing. The dry humor inserted here & there is nice, also (never overly done). For example, popping the packing air bubbles at the beginning. Who among us did not want to reach into the video and do that. 😆
Hey thank you so much !! 😀🙌
Excelente video de restauracion de este modelo de tren abandonado JEP de antes de la guerra, respetos y saludos desde Venezuela.💯🤜🔥🤛👍🙏💯💯
Another absolutely beautiful restoration.
These were truly incredibly crafted toys
I never would have thought I could enjoy watching something be restored like this. I love your videos and your restorations are amazing!!!!!
Glad to hear that ! Thank you very much 🙌🙌🙌
That clockwork is incredibly fascinating, but it must be equally as rewarding to restore. Good job :)
These clockwork mechanisms are amazing ⚙️Thanks a lot for watching and commenting 🙏
I love the way, he uses those 2 toy men😊
Now I'm curious to see what the Rolling Stock for this type of Toy Train was like.
Pacific carénée Nord 3.1280 if i am not totaly wrong here...
Ok

Wow! The previous generations really made and took great pride in their creations, even toys.
What an absolutely stunning restauration!
You've developed a wonderful set of skills. Very relaxing to watch somebody take the care to do the job right.
Thank you so much 🙏
First of all: thank you for your videos! There are many reasons why I appreciate them. In random order: great workmanship, relaxed atmosphere without shock effects so typical of our days, great recording, the work soundscapes and the music you have chosen, just the love of old toys, the joy of doing something by yourself and not once more buying more things. I wish there was at least somebody alive who have actually made these toys decades ago. He/she should absolutely see your videos!
Thank you very much for these words Tero !!! Really appreciate it !
Wow...That looked challenging and you took it on!
Thx for sharing!!
Thank you !! 😃🙏
Simply awesome job!!! Can´t believe what you've done out of this old rusty train...Congrats!
Thank you very much !
The tiny workers are very impressed with your effort. Their body language shows they have great respect and reverence for the new life of the engine and tender.
This restoration made me so happy to watch. The attention to detail and keeping it original down to the color is awesome and is missing in a lot of the other channels who do this. Great job.
Thanks a lot for these gratifying words !! 👍🏻🙏🙌 Glad you enjoyed 👌🏻
Great job, no unnecessary puttying. I like that original look.
You are a hero of restoration of old motel trains into new model trains. I like trains bro

Nice job, especially the new machined buffers 👌
Awesome Job!! That’s Fantastic!! 👍😁

Glorious. I love it! Thanks for the awesome restoration video!
Thank you !!! 😃🙌
That was an amazing restoration!
I find it interesting how so many of these older toys are assembled by metal flaps holding things in place whereas today it's usually just done with glue and screws
You have restored a beautiful toy, great job 👍
Thanks again !! 🙌
