Useful References...
An
astonishing amount of prototype information has been published on the subject of modern
traction, both in terms of the individual classes of locomotive and the traffic they
operate.
There are a number of excellent books which I make reference to on a regular basis. These
include a number of small but detailed publications outlining some excellent modelling
technique.
