| Etched Locomotive Construction | 78pages | Softback |
| Iain Rice | 1990 | £11.95 |
| 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. |

| Plastic Bodied Locomotives | 164pages | Softback |
| Tim Shackleton | 1999 | £14.95 |
| An excellent addition to the modellers bookshelf, a detailed and well illustrated look at creating finescale models through "bashing" proprietary locomotives. The results are convincing, and the techniques and comments apply to working on any injection moulded body. For the record, the prototypes created are; Fowler 4F, B1, Terrier, County, West Country and 9F. |
