Modeling shortline railroads can lead down many paths. They often feature older equipment, less-frequent operation, and simple track arrangements, all of which can make them easier to re-create.

Modeling Shortline Railroads, written by Tony Koester, features both classic and modern examples of prototype short lines across the country.

This book shows you:

Modern holding companies that operate multiple shortline railroads
How older locomotives and freight equipment get new life on short lines
Examples of how modelers have used short lines to create realistic layouts
How a shortline layout can be realistically freelanced based on a prototype example
And much more!
