Book Reviews of Model Railroading With MTH Electric Trains

Book Review: Great book for beginner making an initial MTH layout
Summary: 5 Stars

I made my son's first layout using realtrax and (mostly ) MTH buildings and accessories. This book has served as my primary text and source of inspiration. We are not putting the enormous cost of DCS in his layout yet, but it is nice to have the reference incase we add it later. The text is concise and to the point, and the photos are exactly what is needed to reinforce an ideal, suggestion, or instruction.
