Toy Trains: A History by Pierce Carlson

The rendition describes the history of toy trains from the mid-1800s through much of the 1900s. There are full color renditions of famous trains; such as, the American Flier Lines, the Marklin heavy locomotive and the flat car Lionel trains. This work would be perfect for the professional toy train collector in your house. The presentation contains the names and model descriptions of the toy trains depicted. The cost is modest for the huge value of the information contained. This book would be helpful in valuing an existing collection of toy or model trains.
