Synopsis:

This handy book by model railroading expert Bernard Kempinski is aimed at the typical model railroader facing space limitations for his layout in a spare bedroom or garage. Features 26 track plans based on such interesting prototype lines as Maine’s Bangor & Aroostook, Western Maryland – Thomas Subdivision, C&O – Miami Subdivision, Canadian Pacific/Soo – Minot Subdivision, Southern Pacific – Yuma Subdivision, Utah Railway, and Alaska/British Columbia’s White Pass & Yukon. Most plans are shown in several scales and fit spaces from 8'x10' to a 20'x20' G Scale garage layout.

About the Author: Bernard Kempinski is a freelance writer who has contributed more than 40 magazine articles and 20 lectures on model railroading, many of them on steel mills. His N scale Alkem Steel mill model won best-in-show award at the Madison, Wis., NMRA show in 1997. He also consults on layout design and has been commissioned to build models on subjects as large as a 1950s steel mill and a paper mill, both featured in the Walthers catalog. He is the proprietor of Alkem Scale Models.  Bernard, a former Army Captain, is an analyst for the Institute for Defense Analysis in Alexandria, Va.
