Bought myself a new (old) train book by Gustav Reder. It's a massive tome of 300+ pages on the history of steam locomotives and unlike others that concentrate on US prototype this covers much of Europe which is rare in an English language book. For once I can leave my German dictionary on the shelf.

Sorry, I misused a term. The light systems I have are wire, not track. I plan to fix the bulbs up behind an overhead beam.

That would work for me in my attic.

This is a continuation of another post in the Collector's area.

It can be about trains, scenery or anything else related to model railroading.

I'll have to check those bulbs out.

I purchased 2 locos on the weekend at the Perth Model Railway Exhibition here in Western Australia. #1 was a Fowler 4P in the Hornby alternate LMS numbering - AU$110 and #2 was the streamlined burgandy coloured Coronation Duchess of Norfolk AU$135 - both locos by Hornby and DCC ready. I was most pleased with the prices to be honest.

I bet you were! If I had bought that here I would have paid twice that.
