Published originally in 1956 and has been continuously in print for over 50 years! It is now in its 29th printing and still going strong. Since its third printing in 1961, it has been reprinted at least four times, and up to six times, each decade! So far, in the teens of the new millennium, there have been two reprints, on track to keeping pace with its past performance. The publishers report that over 500,000 copies have been sold! And no wonder!

Linn Westcott's creative and imaginative plans, together with detailed and instructive captioning, make this track plan book one of the best such books available. It provides the interested modeler, whether just starting out or a veteran of years of experience, with some of the best laid out plans either are going to have a chance to use. The presentation of each carefully detailed plan is pure artistry. You have only to peruse this book, or, better, delve into a construction using these wonderful resources, to find out for yourself.

Linn Westcott, very obviously a master builder himself, didn't live long enough to see the success he had wrought. He died in 1980, but his masterwork lives on, and thanks for that. He made a work to live by.

Easy-to-use plans in every size, shape and scale -- from tiny card-table layouts to giant garage-size railroads. Demonstrates how to design a railroad to fit any space, shows how to convert plans to N, HO, S, and O scales.
