78 'Freqently Asked Questions' are addressed by accomplished
modellers including Ian Futers, Peter Marriott, Chris Nevard and Pelle
Soeborg. Between them they bring a vast experience of modelling in all
the popular scales and prototypes from different parts of Britain,
Europe and the USA in both standard and narrow gauges. The authors'
layouts have ranged for highly portable dioramas and 'micro layouts'
brought to life with attention to detail to large and impressive
recreations of real stations which can only be displayed to advantage in
exhibition halls.
While some of the questions cover
availaibility and suitability of materials or models enquiries about
techniques and features are answered in 'how to' format with
illustrations of the methods being described.
Illustrations for
this book have principally been taken from smaller sized layouts which
could easily be accomodated in the family home and some of which are
considerably smaller than might be thought!
