Readers interested in modeling a realistic railroad of the 1950s will love this book based on a special 2005 issue of Model Railroader. This book provides historical information and photos covering locomotives, passenger equipment, freight cars, and trackside details. Featured layouts in a variety of scales show how to model Chicago’s Dearborn Station, move coal in the Appalachians, carry produce, and recreate Los Angeles of the 1950s.
