The Western Region of British Railways has always held a special
appeal for railway modellers. Formed in 1948, the WR carried on the
traditions of The Great Western Railway more or less unchallenged
until the regions were abolished in the 1990s. Modelling the
Western Region provides all the advice you need to model your own
railway layout based on this fascinating region and era. This book
considers the historical background of the Western Region; it
reviews available ready-to-run and kit-built steam and diesel
motive power; explains Western Region signalling practice;
discusses rolling stock typically used on the Western Region and,
finally, provides practical suggestions for branch and main line
layouts.
0 gauge (scale 7mm to the foot) is the 'senior scale' and it has
existed for almost as long as the hobby of railway modelling
itself. With the advent of high-quality ready-to-run 0 gauge
locomotives and rolling stock, it is enjoying a huge surge in
popularity. This fascinating book covers the history and the
benefits of 0 gauge; discusses the various prototypical gauges that
can be successfully modelled in 0 gauge; examines making a start in
this gauge and practical layout planning and it also shows the
modeller how to successfully create scenery and model buildings.
