My TRAIN Library |
|
. |
| There are many places to find inspiration and get ideas
for turning your family onto model railroading and trains in general. Here are just a few
of the many books in my library. Anything put out by Kalmbach comes highly
recommended. You can't go wrong with any of the ATLAS track plan/layout books for
beginners either. Model Railroader offers many fine examples too. And, hey, check
out Classic Toy Trains. There are also several "LIVE STEAM" magazines,
mags that specialize in Narrow Gauge Railroading, and many for every railfans hope
chest. If you are thinking about going for a train ride, get a copy of the Steam
Directory. |
