If like me, you are new to N gauge modelling then this is the perfect book. It covers just about everything from the history and origins of the gauge, track layout, rolling stock, scenery and buildings right up to ‘weathering’ techniques (ageing and adding character to your models and layout). All of the information is presented in a very readable way and is backed-up by lots of shiny, colour photographs. This book is so good, l can’t put it down! Right now, l am seriously considering buying this author’s other book entitled ‘Designing and Building Fiddle Yards: A Complete Guide for Railway Modellers’.

The book is full of great photos, giving a pictorial step by step account of the helpful information given, to help anyone progress with their own N gauge layouts. I thoroughly enjoyed this book which is an easy read, with easy to follow ideas and suggestion and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in model railways.

I knew a little about N gauge and wanted to update myself and learn more. I think the book is excellent value and well written and very informative. I am enjoying the history of N gauge couplings - who would have thought it! I have already started searching for more detailed books on certain aspects of the hobby. But in fairness, I know you could build a competent layout from the information contained and using the extra references that are littered throughout the book.
