Getting Started With Lionel Trains: Your Introduction to Model Railroading Fun by Allan W. Miller | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Allan, I recently came upon on Amazon the 2001 copyrighted book Getting Started With Lionel Trains: Your Introduction to Model Fun. From the preview shown it appears to provide enjoyable and informative reading for 3 rail o-gauge newbies and am wondering and hopeful that you're planning a revised, updated edition in the not too distant future. Is a redo of that book something that those who are contemplating getting into our wonderful hobby can look forward to? Kenn, ogaugeguy

I have not the book or even seen the book, but how much is new since the book was written? Might want to weight a year or two as the Lion Chief line developes.

Allan's book is timeless and I highly recommend it to all. I bought it when it was first published and still enjoy going back to it from time to time.
