[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Jetrock I highly recommend Kalmbach's (long out-of-print) Traction Handbook--it includes a ton of good information for the traction modeler, including layout plans and photos, plans for trolley and interurban motive power plus an article on scratchbuilding interurbans and trolleys, street trackage, and how to hang trolley wire. Perhaps with the increase in interest in traction modeling, Kalmbach will bring it back into print... [/quote] Thanks for the feedback Jetrock. I'm hoping to locate a copy of the Traction Handbook you described, perhaps at a train show. My LHS is aware of my interest and the owner has promised to make a few calls to folks he knows who may have a ratty copy or two.
