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 ;)

I hope you'll enjoy this restoration.
