4.0 out of 5 stars
A very handy reference tool for the HO layout builder,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Pennsy Middle Division in HO Scale (Model Railroader) (Paperback)
Frary's book presents the construction of a model railroad layout as a step by step project, from the planning stages, through the construction process, to the operation of the finished model. Although Frary specifically models the Pennsylvania Railroad, his book is a valuable tool for the builder of any model railroad. The Pennsy Middle Division in Ho Scale is a good looking, modern book, and it offers sound techniques, good advice, and the experience of one of the hobby's most reknown craftsmen.

This review is from: The Pennsy Middle Division in HO Scale (Model Railroader) (Paperback)
An excellent book to reference, and model, the Pennsylvania Railroad Middle Division in the 1950s. Also, a good "How To" book on building the benchwork, scenery, etc.
