[freestorm]

I bought a small amount of 70 'train parts.

The 4.5V engine (bb07) was inside, badly it was open
I took the opportunity to take pictures.

I guess, because of the whistle?!

Was that one ok? Heard they are often broken. But have never seen one on my own....

Yes, and it was working

The black battery case is also expensive: starts from 12 euro on bricklink.
You got a good deal! Bravo!

Do the interior of blue and black motors exactly the same? there is a good chance they are since both were produced between 1967-69.
If so, then all he needs to do is the buy a working blue motor and replace the content of his black motor :-)

I think they are the same thing  since speed (and noise ) are identical on both colors.

I have only one of these (in 116 set), the other set with black motor was on 119 set (the "Prairie Train") - but I have a later version of this set, which features a newer black motor with low profile - on Brickfactory there are two different scans of 119 instructions showing both motor versions.

As far as I know, these two sets are the only ones to use the black high profile motor.

Based on bricklink, there are 3 sets having this black motor, as it appears to me that the sets 118-3 and 119-1 are very similar:

As far as I know, I only have one blue motor. God knows it is now at the bottom of which box!
Maybe you could open your motors and take a photos and upload? If I find mine, I would do the same.

The motor case is clued.
You can view on pictures that the motor case have opening marks (when I buy it was already opened)
