Source of knowledge

Since Classic Toy Trains hardly ever goes into the discusion of prototype operations,which sources do you use to obtain this type of information. Thanks EASTER

Why, I go right to the source - Trains magazine or Model Railroader -or your local library to find a book on your favorite prototype - see their forums.

I’m a reader of Trains and Classic Trains magazines and own many books on real railroads. Of course, there’s always the internet, too. You can find almost anything from searching google.

Google

Books, magazines, other modelers, videos, but my favorite is hanging around the tracks. These forums aren’t bad either.[;)]

Reading. I have several books on the history of railroading and engines and have subscribed to Trains in the past, now to Classic Trains in addition to CTT and OGR.
