Modelling Heavy Industry

Railway layouts often depict a branch line in a rural or urban setting, with the majority of locomotive models available representing passenger trains. However, increasingly, ready-to-run models of industrial locomotives are becoming available, providing the unique opportunity to place them into an industrial context. This highly illustrated book provides all the guidance and inspiration needed to begin placing these models in their natural, industrial environment. The author guides the modeller through constructing realistic models of coal, clay, stone, brick and steel industries. There is a collection of photographs of important but often overlooked prototype locations and ready-to-run models are used alongside kit-built and scratch-built structures. Finally, each example layout is accompanied by detailed plans, showing how the industrial scenery fits in with the workings of the railway system.
