Rating:  Summary: Pre War Train Restoration Review: This book is a great resource for those individuals who are interested in the repair and restoration of toy trains. I have been able to perform many restorations of pre-war trains and accessories using the advice and diagrams of this book.The subjects are separated by chapters that deal with the reasons, mechanic's and instructions of equipment operation. You get a real sense for the hobby as it existed prior to World War II. The diagrams are remarkably clear with supplimental new text along side of the original operating diagrams. This makes for much easier reading. Of special interest is the chapter on the assembly of the Lionel 700E kit. This section is a treasure of diagrams, pictures and assembly procedures for this famous Hudson.
