New book by Marc and Pat coming soon. . .

For those of you interested in "pretty pictures" of garden railways, a new book is coming out on May 30 by our own Marc Horovitz and Pat Hayward called "Gorgeous Garden Railways."

This is not a how-to book. It will feature large photos and be more of a coffee-table type of item. It is all new material written by Marc and Pat (some photos from previous issues of GR, many new ones too). I've seen parts of it and, wow, the photos!

Check out the web site at: http://www.gorgeousgardenrailways.com/

Previews look great. I'll be buying one for reference.

Hard working Garden Railroads sounds good too. I've even heard of a guy who runs trains in the snow to clear the track <grin> (Marty)

Can hardly wait to get my layout done enough to run trains....
