This review is from: Toy Train Repair Made Easy: 21 Lionel Postwar Projects (Paperback)
I found this booklet a nicely put together manual for some of the key areas that need attention for repairing postwar Lionel Trains. It does not of course cover all accessories but in giving suggestions for reairs of the 21 items covered, many of the tips can be used for other accessories. A nice reference for those that repair Lionel items.
