About this product

Product Information

The Western Region of British Railways has always held a special appeal for railway modelers. Formed in 1948, the WR carried on the traditions of The Great Western Railway more or less unchanged until the regions were abolished in the 1990s. When the copper-capped chimneys and brass safety valve bonnets of the steam age disappeared, it was the Western Region's fast-revving diesel hydraulics that became the source of inspiration for a new generation of spotters, enthusiasts and modelers. And when the hydraulics themselves gave way to diesel electrics, the Class 50 'Hoovers' became the iconic new 'Warships' of the Western Region. Picturesque seaside resorts, idyllic branch lines, lower quadrant signals, auto-trains, pannier tanks and the legacy of the broad gauge all contributed to the Western Region's way of doing things differently. Modelling the Western Region provides all of the advice you need to model your own railway layout based on this fascinating region and era. This book: Considers the historical background of the Western Region, Reviews available ready-to-run and kit-built steam and diesel motive power, Explains Western Region signaling practice, Discusses rolling stock typically used on the Western Region, Provides practical suggestions for branch and main line layouts, Fully illustrated with cover 200 colour images, this is an essential reference for modelers of all abilities and in any scale who wish to model the Western Region.
