Have you ever dreamed of building a model of a favourite railway
station for your layout, whether it be a modest branch line
station, or a large town terminus? Have you ever wanted to
re-create a beautiful station that you have seen at a railway
modelling exhibition, or in a magazine, and felt that you needed a
helping hand? If so, this is the book for you. Ian Lamb, a modeller
of enormous experience, demonstrates how almost anybody, regardless
of their modelling skills, can construct a pleasing and presentable
model railway station in even a quite limited amount of space. Six
specific UK stations, some real and some fictional, are selected as
modelling case studies and the author provides detailed, practical
information about different aspects of their construction.
Throughout the book the author provides step-by-step guidance and
illustrations and emphasizes how - with patience- modelling skills,
confidence and ambition can all be improved over time. Moreover, he
is ever mindful of how costs should be kept down to reasonable
levels and reveals how materials and tools can often be the most
simple and inexpensive of everyday household items.
I have been a fan of the Sherlock Holmes tales since I was given
The Long Stories and The Short Stories in 1961. So when I retired
twelve years ago I decided that I would compile a book on Sir
Arthur Conan Doyle, Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. The majority of
the content is taken from newspaper and magazine articles from
1998-2011 and some book forewords, the greater part containing
information which I had never seen or read before.
