The history of a Pullman dining car which carried passengers in luxury to the Channel Ports en route for Paris. Today Orion can be seen preserved at Pecorama where it provides the perfect setting for morning coffees and cream teas. Includes some useful drawings for modellers. 35 pages.

From the earliest days of N it has been the practice to take plans drawn for 00 and halve the dimensions to arrive at a suitable layout for N. Whereas up to a point this works, it does not take into account factors such as the space needed for operating areas nor the normal reach of the operator. This selection of 20 track plans designed with N gauge in mind takes these and many other issues into account to exploit the possibilities presented by this compact scale.

It is nearly 50 years since the first printing of this book which is a collection of plans designed to have a maximum dimension of 8 feet in 00. It has been re printed and upgraded many times since then as this best selling publication provides not only an excellent selection of track plans, but also addresses issues around compact layouts such as convenient access, modular design and operating potential. A grid is superimposed to make conversion to other scales easy. 33 pages.
