I have a hidden advantage -even though I trawl through the shops (both online and shelved!), I belong to a Garden Railway Association that shares its site with: The Historical Model Railway Society, The Golden Valley Railway, and the Midland Counties Railway... I tend to buy the books that I have already read in the HMRS library!!!! regards ralph

The main one I liked was Industrial Model Building by Louis Gary Lamit because people come and ask about  complex plant model (oil refinery, chemical plant, fossil-fuel, nuclear, pulp and paper, food processing, pharmaceutical, etc. every once in awhile. Any way was tryn to help.......

I think we need to share our book sites and that has been mine for abit.
