    Interesting and Comprehensive

    For anyone considering a Lego town with a train, this is the best and only book with every aspect described, details, history, problems, etc. I never knew about the 3 generations of locomotives for "Lego Land". I had been thinking about building a Lego train for a long time. Reading the book has given me more to think about than I had ever imagined. Since the book is hard cover, it will be read often as an informational guide. It surely is highly recommended for anyone who is interested in Lego (L Gauge) railroading.
