Books

To understand the railway before you reproduce it: histories of Canadian and American railroads, photo albums of locomotives and vintage trains, trackside guides, books on modelling techniques (layouts, scenery, electronics, painting) and manufacturers' catalogues. Specialty publishers such as Morning Sun, White River Productions, Firecrown and the Bytown Railway Society, along with French-language titles on modelling and Quebec railway history. Note that most of these books are published in English; the language is indicated on each product page. If the title you're looking for isn't in stock, let us know: we'll gladly order it.
