The first edition of The Professional Approach to Model Railways sold extremely well when first published in 1987, reprinting twice during the 1990s. Written by a professional model maker, this is a fascinating insight into high-end railway modelling.
A great source of inspiration for beginners and experts alike, you will find projects in The Professional Approach to Model Railways that suit all levels of ability. Practical methods used by the professional model maker are explained in detail and illustrated through the construction of three new layouts, specially built for this book.
In addition, understanding maps and contours, designing the layout and building the baseboard are covered in detail, along with tips and advice on making buildings, track laying, signalling and painting and weathering your model railway.
The Professional Approach to Model Railways second edition has been completely rewritten and significantly updated with new material, photographs and illustrations. It also covers the many model railway technological developments since the previous edition, including digital command control as well as a more thorough explanation of conventional wiring.
The Professional Approach to Model Railways is an essential addition to the bookshelves of all serious railway modellers.
