Hi all :wave:
I guess that many of you guys know about Modern Locomotive Illustrated, I thought that I would Post anyway for those of you who dont
These bi-monthly mags cover a diesel/electric class every two months and the August/September issue covers the Class 33 with plenty of colour phots.
Whilst those interested in the class will already have, no doubt, plenty of info to hand, Modern Locomotives Illustrated have some wonderful phots with numbered lables which have a key so as to identify each numbered item (areas such as cab desks/controls, bufferbeams and pipework, body sides etc. are all covered using this method).
IMHO these mags are very akin to the Diesels In Depth books/series, yet not, as one would expect, quite so detailed
SWMBO thinks that at ?4.20 for a mag is a lot of wonga, yet to my mind these mags are really Class specific detail books with plenty of colour phots and details, descriptions etc., perfect for the railway modeller and all for just ?4.20 To my mind the publication is a softback book rather than a mag - and I believe that when viewed in this way it is a bargain
If youve not seen them before I can recommend them
All the best,
