Well I admit, I don't read books as much as I should. I get bored real quick if something dosent interest me, I dont understand it, or using hard to pronounce words way too many times. I just got done reading Sam Posey's "Playing with Trains". I thought it was excellent. It felt like I couldnt put the book down. Read on here how some people only really liked the 2nd part of the book, but I liked both parts. Definatly a good book if ya got the time to read it. I bought it along with John Armstrong's book on Track Planning for Realistic Operation. I barely made it through that book. It was helpful at times, but also really confussing and slow and dull at the same time. Felt like I was reading a paper written by a college professer which I guess you call John, as he was one of the greats of the hobby. I went to my local public library last week and was shocked to find not that many up to date books on trains. The books they did have were really old and had a smell to them and the only recent books I found were in the childrens section. Not my cup of tea. Steve
