The Large-Scale Model Railroading Handbook
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book provides a basic overview of Garden Scale Model Railroading. It provides a good basis for beginning a layout, track options specific to G scale and differences in manufacturers, wiring issues, scenery and roadbed for both indoor and outdoor applications as well as locomotive and rolling stock options and selection. As a beginner I found this very useful, but limited. It was a good starting point but I had to seek clarification on many topics through the internet and at the local hobby shop. It is not a comprehensive encyclopedia and it does not represent itself to be one. In summary a good starting point for the novice, probably of limited value to others already involved with model railroading.

The Large-Scale Model Railroading Handbook is one of the best books on the subject of both indoor and outdoor Large-Scale Railroading. The different layouts described, the different techniques used, and the photos shown give just a glimps of this hobby. With just a little imagination, even beginners can produce beautiful layouts. The color photos and the listings of the plants used are exceptional and informative. A good book for both the beginner and expert alike.
