Welcome to Gauge 3 - new book

[Ian_T]

The Society has just published a new 80 page, full colour A4 book "Welcome to Gauge 3"

I've just received my copy in the post this morning and at £7.50 (inc UK postage) - I think it's very good value indeed. G3S Members will be receiving a free copy in the post but other WT users visiting this area will find it very informative I think. Well worth the small investment to find out a great deal more about G3...

Regards,

IanT

This book is really very good indeed and covers lots of things not confined to Gauge 3. I shudder to think what it cost the Society to produce! Anyway, we've also just had the major Gauge 3 exhibition of the year which always includes a display of models, some vintage, others newish. This year the theme was LNWR, so I have to share this.
