Great All-Around Reference

A nice reference guide book for a variety of great American O gauge toy trains. While it doesn't exhaustingly list every piece produced by each manufactor it provides a good cost reference for general pieces. Some of the manufactors are not very well represented (i.e. Hafner, Dorfan) and the color pictures only cover a few examples of each company's trains. Still, for the price, it is an essential general reference for the collector.

Classic O Gauge Trains

This book is well done. It has clear photos, and is super-organized and delightfully written. The U.S. toy train industry grew and changed since the beginning of the 20th Century until the 1960 downturn. This book covers this time period and is a fine cross-section of all the major (and some minor) manufacturers and the history behind them from their genesis, who merged with whom, and who lost out in the long haul. I highly recommend this splendid toy train overview to the many amateur and professional collectors out there who will have a definite interest in this excellent publication. It's author, David Doyle, has researched the subject! From one model train collector to another, get this book. I give it a Fiver!
