If you have always dreamed of building a real steam locomotive, have a lathe (which needn't be big) and some patience, then you can build your dream from this book. Is it as good as Kozo Hiraoka's books ? It is on a par, and the model is smaller, simpler and cheaper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe locomotive on which the design here is based is a 2' gauge John Fowler 0-4-0 shipped to Australia in 1923, but as is admirably shown in this book, the basic design can be modified to Hunslet, Peckett, even Decauville outline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd it can be built for gas or coal firing. 189 beautifully produced pages with 137 detail drawings, sketches of set-ups and123 colour photos.
