A must for every beginner. It clears a lot of terms in terms of hobby. In other words concepts behind this hobby are easier to understand. Can be used as a guide line material. The ideas are clear, crisp and concise.


1 out of 5 stars Poor Intro to model railways   November 3, 2009

I was looking for an authoratative book on the creation of a model railway and turned to Hornby as an estemed source. Unfortunately this book is a poor source of both inspiration and technical details with too little technical detail on how to create a new layout. The illustrations are childlike in their presentation and the text lacks any depth of technical detail to help you plan a layout. A poor advert for the Hornby name.

This was excellent value for money and made my Xmas to see my father-in-law's face when he realised I'd managed to find the book he'd been after to "complete" his love of his model railway.
