Summary: A Nice Book
Comment: Robert Schleicher is a master when it comes to model railroading. This book is a nice supplement to any other books one has about N scale. Offers helpful information about couplers, remotoring, and scenery.

Summary: Good introduction to N-scale
Comment: This is a nice and compact book. It gives a good and clear overview of the different aspects of N-modeling including switching, weathering and maintenance of your rolling stock. The use of pictures is very good. Noticeably is that the author also includes Kato track in his review of track options. The clear discussion of different scales within model railroading and the advantages and disadvantages of N-scale impressed me. The author has a strong view on the use of DCC and I agree with him, DCC offers so much ease that it should be used if possible. The book is exclusively aimed at the US market; no European manufactures or layouts are discussed. Drawback of this book is that it only gives an overview of the many aspects of N-scale modeling. Although the building of a specific layout is used as an example, in my view, it does not offer a tutorial for a layout a novice easily could build. In conclusion: although the book leaves you with many new questions, it is a very good introduction to N-scale modeling. For modelers of US style N-scale, Kalmbach also has a good alternative by Martin J. McGuirk.
