New book: Stock Cars
|
Steve SANDIFER
I just stumbled across and purchased a new book by Robert Hundman, Stock Car Cyclopedia Vol. 1. The fact that it is Vol. 1 must mean more are on the way.
Since I can't afford to buy everyone's freight car books to get some stock car details, this one looks very nice. The printing is excellent. Included are photos and diagrams of cars from the AT&SF, B&O (Mather), C&O, Frisco, SL&IM, SP, UP, L&N, MP, and NW plus a couple of interesting articles. Paper bound, 96 pages. $30 http://www.hundman.com/cgi-bin/itemform.cgi?idNum=BK001022&ct=1 I have no connection with the publisher. ______________ J.

When Mainline Modeler ceased publication I had purchase many backissues. In the process of dealing with them (on many different occasions), I was told that Bob Hundman will most likely (not definitely) pursue the book publishing portion of the business. That was some months ago and that may have changed.

Excellent, starting with the 2 photos of a train of loaded wood hoppers and a 4-wheel bobber caboose being pulled and pushed by M class 4-8-0s (one on the point, 2 pushing).

Wished I'd known people actually paid for old issues of Mainline Modeler.
A few months ago I went through the boxes of these thing that I've moved from one corner of the country to the other and realized that although I'd fallen into the "this is one of the best resorces out there" trap myself I have, with few exceptions, never used any of the information in Mainline to build a model of anything. I kept a few articles which seemed of use (the rivet making article as well as Ben's X-29 piece, and the Lakers series of all things . . . ) and dumped the rest in the recycling bin. Marty |
