I was checking out audiobooks by Tara Moss on eBay & this one was at the best price. I thought I hadn't heard it, so I bought. Very quick processing by Seller, arrived on time, packaged well, sealed, new, BUT I found I already had it, but hadn't listened to it. It was my fault, considered returning it, & it was made easy thru' eBay & I was able to return it to seller. A seller with great items who was very accommodating, thank you for understanding.

  • Building your own railway branch line.

    Modelling Branch Lines is the book for those modellers who want to create a miniature world around a railway branch line. Not only does the book look at the layout of many branches, it places them within the context of their surroundings.

  • Branch line modelling

    I bought this book to hopefully give me some inspiration in building a branch line terminus. It did so much more than that. Extremely well added photographs throughout showing the most minor of prototypical railway details all the way up to numerous track plans. This book is nothing short of fantastic.
