Station Operations for the Modeller
Published October 2016 - not available to pre-order
The intricacies of station operations during the steam era, fully detailed for railway modellers
Highly regarded author Bob Essery brings his personal experience as a railwayman and railway modeller to bear on the operation of model railway station layouts. Following the same principles as his highly praised previous books on a variety of railway operations for the modeller, here he concentrates on the various operations to be seen at stations. The principles of operation in these examples will apply to all railways and will guide the modeller today who is no longer able to see at first hand how the railway worked in the steam era.
The book is organised into types of station, including main line and country stations, large and small termini, branch line station, goods stations, yards, depots and collieries. Prototype examples are shown of each of the station types illustrated with photographs, trackplans and working timetables.
