THE BOYS' BOOK OF MODEL RAILWAYS

Pub Date: Feb. 25th, 1959
Publisher: Roy

A vast compendium of facts and aids for the model train enthusiast. Designed primarily for the younger modeller, it both acquaints him with the engineering data relative to his hobby, and examines some elementary facts which govern the running of an actual railroad. Illustrated with drawings and diagrams, this text reaches encyclopedic proportions in its thoroughness and its accuracy in terms of construction and operation. English terminology and measurements may somewhat limit the market.
