Ian Morton Railway Electrics book:
A new addition to Ian Allan Publishing’s highly popular practical modelling series, this title introduces the concepts and practice of wiring model railway layouts from start to finish. Beginning with the basics the book will cover cab control, point control, signalling, train detection and lighting. Starting from the assumption that the reader has no knowledge above connecting up a train set, the book will guide readers through the various techniques used until they have the knowledge to wire up a complex model railway. Individual chapters will concentrate on separate topics building in complexity.
This gradual approach will allow readers to apply the ideas as their confidence grows. The final chapter offers a trouble-shooting guide to enable modellers to track down and correct electrical faults on their model railway.A glossary of terms is included along with a useful listing of suppliers.This is the fifth volume in the ‘Aspects of Modelling’ series which has won widespread acclaim from railway modellers for its close-up detailed photographs, practical help and guidance and easy to follow instructions. A must-have purchase for anyone thinking of including electrics on their model rail layout.
Illustrated throughout.
