How to Model Railroads of the 1950s
Very interesting and informative. If one considers modeling with both diesel and steam, it lists what type of jobs where diesels were utilized, and what jobs the steam engines would perform.
Excellent articles that are most helpful to ALL categories of model railroading. There is something to learn in every article - it may just be a paragraph; however, it is useful. N gage articles are equally useful for the other gages and interests. The $7.95 is money well spent.
