TABLE OF CONTENTS
CHAPTER I: YOUR RAILROAD; STEP BY STEP The simple train set oval can be easily expanded into a complete setting to recreate the romantic movements of real railroading.
CHAPTER II: AUTOMATIC COUPLER TIPS Your miniature railroad empire will perform as well as look life-like when trains and cars can be coupled by remote control.
CHAPTER III: NARROW GAUGE NOSTALGIA Turn-of-the-century railroad builders picked slightly smaller trains and tracks to force their way up the flanks of the mountains.
CHAPTER IV: BRIDGE BUILDING
Bridges were unavoidable on real railroads. The modeler will find them the best excuse ever to create rivers and roads for them to span.
CHAPTER V: LIVE STEAM SHOWCASE
Not all models of railroad equipment are run by electricity; these mammoth models are powered by steam generated by oil or coal fires.
CHAPTER VI: TUNNEL TECHNIQUES
Wood and plaster construction ideas for do-it-yourself or kit-built entrances and exits to those train-lengthening miniature tunnels.
CHAPTER VII: SHORTLINE SWITCHER Metal-bodied conversion of a plastic diesel into a one-of- a-kind switcher or short line road engine requires only simple tools.
CHAPTER VIII: MODELING IN PLASTIC
Plastic parts, shapes, and sheets can be cut, drilled, and filed like metal yet the material is as easy to work and glue as wood.
CHAPTER IX: BUILDINGS FROM PHOTOS Cardboard bracing and photographic prints can be used to create miniatures of your favorite full-size structures.

A sampling of the best locomotives, rolling stock, accessories, and structures that will appear on your dealer's shelves this year.
