Locomotive Prototype: French State Railways (SNCF) class 040 steam locomotive was originally a German former Prussian Class G8 freight locomotive.  After WWI, many German locomotives were handed over to France and Belgium as war reparations.  The Belgian SNCB railroad reclassified the G8s to series 81.  The class 81s were painted in an attractive moss green and black livery and were used to haul mixed goods freight trains.

Locomotive Model Info: Like all the new Jouef steam locomotives the Class 040 has extensive cosmetic details which includes a high-quality paint finish, crisp lettering, inset windows, brake shoes between wheels and interior details in the driver’s cab. The new Jouef HO Gauge locomotives are remarkable newly tooled models.  This model is mostly metal and has a fully functional, finely detailed Heusinger valve gear and prototypical “daylight” between the boiler and chassis. Model is equipped with powerful five pole can motor with flywheel and high-quality gears, which gives the model smooth running characteristics and excellent performance.  Model also features an advanced Zimo sound decoder and high quality speakers which gives the model amazing sound.  Model is equipped with prototypical headlights on both the locomotive and tender, lights coordinated with direction of travel.  All Jouef models are equipped with NEM coupler pockets.
