About this product

Product Information

When Lionel introduced its new FasTrack system in 2004, model train enthusiasts quickly warmed to the increased realism-- right down to the integrated roadbed and darkened center rail-- and the greater ease of use. In this book, the author of "The Big Book of Lionel" presents the first complete guide to the FasTrack system. Amply illustrated with color photographs and 36 track diagrams, the book instructs readers on every aspect of the system, from assembling and disassembling FasTrack to building a simply oval, planning a layout within various space constraints, building tracks for two trains and reversing trains, and designing unique layouts-- even yard layouts.

  • FASTRACK LIONEL BOOK (R. Schleicher)

    This interesting book is not an official publication of LIONEL. ADVANTAGES : Well illustrated, this 158 pages book contains 185 illustrations (135 photos and 50 diagrams). High quality of illustrations and text make it easy to understand (my language is French). Very helpful for choosing pertinent Lionel Fastrack items on eBay or other distributors. Many big and small layouts. WEAKNESS : Ping-Pong table layout (p.67-68-69). New orientation of diagram layout (top p. 67) to be rotate parallel to photography (p.69) would ameliorate comprehension. Exact location of trestle sets (6-12037, 6-12038) and bridge (6-12772) are not well represented in pages 28, 29, 67 and 69. Some photos are unnecessary (ex. p. 29), repetitive (ex. p. 54-55, 68-69, 70-71, 72-73) or missing (ex. terminal ...

  • great book!

    Very good book with lots of information on all the Fastrack available at the time. It talks about hooking the track together, securing it to a surface, what to put under the track to eliminate noise, wiring, blocks, running multiple trains, tables to put the track on, and has lots of layouts you can build. It talks about hooking up various accessories. If you're just starting out with Lionel Fastrack or you want to increase the size or complexity of a Fastrack layout then this is the right book.

  • Definitely a great help in setting up Fastrack layouts

    Very nice book. Very helpful

  • Quality Publication

    This is a very nice quality book. Great pictures,terrific diagrams. Paper is extra thick and something that will last. No newsprint here! This covers many of the first timer subjects of making a layout with FasTrack and also has some good hints for advanced modelers. I would buy again.
