This is a good book for the beginning toy train collector - I wanted it so I could see some old Lionel trains Post War vintage. I bought a real odd engine at a yard sale it was an 0 27 (which is S scale)American Flyer Engine that ran on 3 rail Lionel 027 track - so I wanted to know more about American Flyer. The Flyer Lionel wars were very real in my house growing up - I had Lionel and my Brother had American Flyer. I never cared for Flyer for it didn't have the play value with the accessories that my Lionel had - my brother hated the three rail track which did not look real, but it worked so much better for wiring and control is simple in 3 rail where as 2 rail has issues with reverse loops. Any way this book does a great job with an overview of the truly classic toy trains. This book did not have a picture of my odd little Hudson locomotive by the way.
