THE 2027 RAILWAY MODELLER SPECIAL

Printed on high quality paper with a glossy, card cover, this bookazine comprises more than 100 pages of new and previously unpublished material, covering a wide range of topics – all related to the wonderful hobby of model railways.

Layout features include a spectacular rendition of the Woodhead Route in N gauge, a room-filling Privatisation era system with main line diesels in OO, and an O gauge exhibition model inspired by Chard Junction, set in the 1960s.

In addition, the railways and tram systems on the Isle of Man are explored, whilst the life of the Reverend Awdry – creator of The Railway Series of books – is charted with an in-depth biographical article.

Other articles cover the construction of a working model depicting the 19th century Catch Me Who Can locomotive in Gauge 1; an examination of the challenges associated with reproducing private railway company liveries in model form; and a retrospective look at the life and career of Class 56 locomotive 56 302 prior to its recent export overseas.

There are many more features as well, including our customary review of the past year.

124 pages (including cover).
