Avis sur le produitThe Lionel FasTrack Book by Robert Schleicher (2006, Trade Paperback, Revised edition)

FASTRACK LIONEL BOOK (R. Schleicher)

This interesting book is not an official publication of LIONEL.

ADVANTAGES : Well illustrated, this 158 pages book contains 185 illustrations (135 photos and 50 diagrams). High quality of illustrations and text make it easy to understand (my language is French). Very helpful for choosing pertinent Lionel Fastrack items on eBay or other distributors. Many big and small layouts.

WEAKNESS : Ping-Pong table layout (p.67-68-69).
New orientation of diagram layout (top p. 67) to be rotate parallel to photography (p.69) would ameliorate comprehension.
Exact location of trestle sets (6-12037, 6-12038) and bridge (6-12772) are not well represented in pages 28, 29, 67 and 69.
Some photos are unnecessary (ex. p. 29), repetitive (ex. p. 54-55, 68-69, 70-71, 72-73) or missing (ex. terminal track : 6-12016).
No range price are given for items on pages 18-19.Lire l'avis complet...

great book!

Very good book with lots of information on all the Fastrack available at the time. It talks about hooking the track together, securing it to a surface, what to put under the track to eliminate noise, wiring, blocks, running multiple trains, tables to put the track on, and has lots of layouts you can build. It talks about hooking up various accessories. If you're just starting out with Lionel Fastrack or you want to increase the size or complexity of a Fastrack layout then this is the right book.Lire l'avis complet...

Quality Publication

This is a very nice quality book. Great pictures,terrific diagrams. Paper is extra thick and something that will last. No newsprint here! This covers many of the first timer subjects of making a layout with FasTrack and also has some good hints for advanced modelers.
I would buy again.Lire l'avis complet...

LIONEL FASTRACK BOOK

I have been collecting trains for over 40 years and I have not had a sei up for over 20 years. I just recently started to set up my O scale trains and I did not know anything about Lionels new fastrack, so I purchased this book and I want to tell you it is excellent! It tells you everything you want to know about the track and how to use the old lionel accesaries with it.Lire l'avis complet...
