【Model Railroad Hobby Special Series ①】Model Railroad Works: 20 Selections ◎ 1981 Reproduction This is the first installment of the TMS Special Series, re-edited from 20 selected self-made model works published in the monthly magazine "Model Railroad Hobby (TMS)" from its inaugural issue to the early Showa 30s (around issues 30 to 150), condensing the technology and passion of the time. This item was found in a closet at home, a reproduction from 1981 of a supplementary volume originally released in the Showa 30s to 40s. It's in miraculous deadstock condition, almost as good as new. Featured are 20 model works, including representative Japan National Railways (JNR) types such as the C53 and D52 steam locomotives, self-made vehicles of the Shonan Electric Railway, the predecessor of the current Keikyu, and a diverse and unique collection of international models, such as American steam locomotives and 8mm gauge diesel trains. In particular, Mr. Yutaka Nakao's "My Hudson Production Chronicle" and Mr. Kennosuke Iwate's "I-Tovo Highland Railway" production articles are detailed records that enthusiasts should read, showcasing the essence of model-making techniques of the time. The charm of this book lies not only in the introduction of completed works but also in the detailed drawings and explanations that convey the working methods, design philosophies, and deep love and passion for model making of the time. In particular, you can learn about the footprints left by Japanese model railroaders from the period of rapid economic growth to the oil shock era, with content almost identical to the original edition. The abundance of articles on local private railways is also noteworthy. The "Iha-Tovo Highland Railway," which seems to be modeled after the Iwate Light Railway, and the fictional route settings and vehicles that reflect the passion of modelers who love local railways, provide endless inspiration for fans interested in modeling local lines. This is a "miraculous book of revived deadstock." 1981, Kigei Publishing, B5 size, 74 pages #Other Railway Books Here #Other "Light Railway Narrow Gauge Lines" Here #ModelRailroad #TMS SpecialSeries #ModelRailroadHobby #C53 #D52 #Hudson #SteamLocomotive #Streamlined #DieselTrain #SelfMadeVehicles #HOGauge #AmericanType #Locomotive #RailwayMaterials #ModelMaking #ShowaRetro #Deadstock #KigeiPublishing #IwateDevelopmentRailway #LocalPrivateRailway
