Etched Locomotive Construction£11.95
Iain Rice1990Softback78 pages
Starting with a history and description of the genre, the intrepid Mr Rice takes on the de-mystification of the etched kit. There are lots of useful tips (now I know why my chassis didn't work) and clear and attractive photographs. The book culminates in a detailed blow by blow account of the construction of a "Dukedog" kit - rather you than me! I would say that this is a useful reference on the subject for all scales, despite the author being a predominantly 4mm modeller.
Locomotive Kit Chassis Construction In 4mm£13.95
Iain Rice1993Softback158 pages
A very comprehensive work covering the construction of kit chasses for both OO and scale gauge 4mm railways. All sorts of components from Romfords to state of the art Ultrascale wheels are considered.
Whitemetal Locos£10.95
Iain Rice1989Softback64 pages
In his inimitable and readable style, Mr Rice explains how to extract the best from the various qualities (!) of whitemetal kits, including the remedying of faults and detailing.
