  Just started reading the Peter Jones colnmn & was wondering If GR has ever put these together in a book.   If not, It may be a good idea.   What do you think?  Jerry L

No Peter Jones book has ever been done. However, I will email the Books department and link to this thread, so they can read your comments.

Its been done before, Harry Brunk's Opus "Up Clear Creek on the Narrow Gauge" is a single source compilation of his series of articles written over a period of several years in the Gazette.

Its a great source for us indoor guys, doing a book like this for outdoors, by someone like Peter Jones would be very interesting and might be a very good idea!

Rene,  Wasn't thinking about his book, but a compilation of the articles in GR.  jerry

Ralph,

YOU are correct. I meant that KALMBACH has never published a book. He had a book published last summer in published in the UK called Practical Garden Railways.

Hey Ralph thats cool! I checked Amazon here, and its avalable this side of the pond also

My copy of 'Practical Garden Railways' is an indispensable source of information and inspiration. 

My copy will never ever be lent or sold!  I even caught my wife reading it once.

 A compilation of all his 'scriblings' would be an instant hit, now why didn't someone think of that before? 

Bestest, Matthew Foster.

I like reading his column. Think it would be a hit if it was just his garden railways "notes" column.
