This book is very comprehensive and easy to use. It is a great reference, which it is supposed to be. It is divided by years and has great photographs.
Sets are listed by the year they were made and sold, any changes to the set are noted by year, making it easy to find your exact set. The pictures are very good, and more would always be better, but I have no complaints! Worth the price.
i was looking for a catalog that would show all the train sets ever made during those years and what they consisted of. So if someone was selling a vintage train in a box i would know all the cars that it should have ,hopefully how they would would work ..what Lionel tried to accomplish with this set and how much was the original retail cost then If you know of such a catalog let me know
