Customer Reviews

Gives lots of tips, however, may be better beginner books
As advertised, the authors give you lots of tips and techniques for your model train layout, garnered from their years of experience.

While the book covers all the bases, it doesn't really go into great detail on anyone. Rather it gives you a overview and a list of other books to read/buy. In this aspect, there may be better, more detailed books that a beginning model train enthusiast should spend their money on.

Build a Better Toy Train Layout
I thought that the book was well written and provides a broad overview of the subject without getting involved in all the details. The author recommends other publications to get down to the nitty-gritty. An excellent book for those wanting a broad overview on how to proceed to build a toy train layout.

TIPS GALORE FOR TOY TRAIN LAYOUTS
This book is basically the accounting of building a major toy train layout. It goes over the basic ideas and what problems and mistakes where made in the contruction. The "gems" of the book are all the helpful hints and tips offered. You may never do a layout as large as the one in the book but you will find something that will help you out or make you think differently. The two gentlemen that wrote the book are both "legends" in the toy train world. Good stuff for the expert and the beginner.
