Books

Post by MTA » Sat Oct 25, 2008 6:22 pm

I've just got back from Expo NG at Swanley, and I bought a couple of books from Atlantic Publishers.

The first is Tag Gorton's Live Steam Workshop, on how to upgrade engines.

The second is a most recent one, which is 'A Passion for Steam' by Marc Horovitz.

You all know about the first, but the second one I have already found to be really useful! It has given me tips on how to light a meths loco as well as more info on the different fittings one could wish to add to a loco.

Even though most probably know about locos, Marc's book has already given me more info than I already knew :D
