This review is from: Lionel's Postwar Space and Military Trains (Toy Train Reference Series) (Paperback)
This book is very informative and has loads of pictures.It is fun to read and I recommend it to any collector of toy trains. The author also has written an excellent book on the Lionel postwar F3 locomotive. Both books are a great resource for collectors and fans of Lionel trains.
