Realistically model six major rail-served industries
Accurately modeling industries and their traffic is a key to building and operating a realistic model railroad. The Model Railroader's Guide to Industries Along the Tracks 2 explores six industries: coal (dealers and users), milk, breweries, iron ore, paper, and merchandise traffic. Written with modelers in mind, the book includes prototype photos, drawings, and information that will enable model railroaders to accurately replicate these industries and their traffic on a layout.
Each chapter includes
Authentic photos of rolling stock, structures, and equipment
Detailed information on rail operations
Historical overview of the industry
Informative descriptions of industrial processes
Handy references to available models
