Next Steps in Railway Modelling (Paperback)

Midland's most successful railway title to date has been First Steps in Railway Modelling which provides a basic introduction to the hobby for absolute beginners. The success of this book has created a demand for a sequel which will take newcomers to the hobby on to the next level of proficiency. At last that book is coming and it is sure to be welcomed by many modellers for the great amount of additional information on modelling techniques which it contains. Among the many topics covered by the book are; issues of gauge and scale, improving and detailing locomotives and rolling stock, layout planning, building rolling stock both from kits and from scratch, techniques to build better scenery, electrical wiring and advice on how to operate your railway in a realistic fashion. Written by the well known modeller and model railway writer Chris Ellis and lavishly illustrated throughout, Next Steps in Railway Modelling will be a welcome and much referred addition to the railway modeller's library.
